Jaipur, September 19 (HS). Congress party protested by organizing a huge dharna at Shahid Smarak in Jaipur under the leadership of State Congress President Govind Singh Dotasara against the violent, indecent and unruly comments and statements made against the Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi in Lok Sabha.
Addressing the protest, state Congress president Dotasara warned Union Minister Ravneet Singh Bittu over his statement calling Congress leader Rahul Gandhi a terrorist and said, now come to Rajasthan and tell us, we will not let you enter. Come here and tell us, we will tell you who is a terrorist and who is not.
No. He said that Bittu is a Rajya Sabha MP from Rajasthan, if Bittu had given this statement before the elections, we would have reminded him of his mother's milk.
He alleged that after 10 years of rule, when the leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party started losing their power, they have now resorted to violence and are making absurd and violent statements. He said that the leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party are doing various activities to spread hatred and violence in the society, therefore, the Congress workers and leaders will have to go among the people and not only expose the hateful programs of the Bharatiya Janata Party, but also warn the leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party that they have come to power by telling lies, but now they will have to work for the country and the development of the people.
He said that people sitting on high posts in the BJP government are making indecent statements, which is condemnable and the BJP national president, who is repeatedly reminded that he is still in office and has become a central minister, is ignoring all these things. He said that Rahul Gandhi is fighting as the voice of the people of the country, raising public issues. Such statements made by the BJP leaders against him are completely wrong and condemnable. He said that Rahul Gandhi, who is the grandson of former Prime Minister Late Indira Gandhi, son of former Prime Minister Late Rajiv Gandhi and is raising the voice of the poor, backward, Dalits, tribals, women, youth and farmers of the country as the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, has crossed all limits of indecency by making such indecent statements against him by the BJP leaders, which is condemnable. He said that the BJP leaders have spoiled the atmosphere of the country. He said that it is the duty of the government to ensure peace in the country, there is an atmosphere of peace, people progress, children get good education, families develop, but no leader of the BJP in the central or state government condemned these statements, which makes it clear that the intentions of the BJP leaders are not good.
During this, Dotasara advised Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar to maintain the dignity of the post, if he comes to Rajasthan and campaigns for BJP, the public will not tolerate it. When Jagdeep Dhankhar became the Vice President, the pride of the entire Rajasthan increased. The Congress government also respected him, but if he comes to Rajasthan and campaigns for BJP, the people of Rajasthan will not tolerate it. Dotasara said that the Vice President should not be photographed with BJP leaders. A few days ago, he was praising Manohar Lal Khattar. We want to tell him that he should not tarnish the dignity of the post of Vice President. In this country, the Prime Minister, Home Minister are not maintaining the dignity of their posts. At least you should maintain the dignity of the post of Vice President.
He called upon the Congress workers present at the protest to organize protests at the district level on 20 or 21 September against the violent and indecent remarks made by the BJP leaders against Rahul Gandhi. He said that the Congress party leaders and workers will protest against the BJP leaders at the block and booth level and warn the BJP leaders not to make such indecent remarks.
Leader of Opposition Tikaram Julie said that Rahul Gandhi has not made any wrong statement regarding reservation. When he was asked whether his government will continue reservation, he replied yes that reservation will continue. It will continue till the day everyone gets the right to equality. Julie said that I am also from the Dalit class, but when we get the right to equality, we will also give up reservation. The fight is for equality, SC-ST, EWS will all give up reservation when there is equality. But, these people want to propagate Rahul Gandhi's statement in a wrong way. They have failed in that.
State Congress General Secretary and Media Incharge Swarnim Chaturvedi said that the protest was addressed by Leader of Opposition, Deputy Leader of Opposition Ramkesh Meena, MP Bhajanlal Jatav, MLA Manoj Meghwal, Amit Chachan, Amin Kagzi, former minister Govind Ram Meghwal, Pratap Singh Khachariyawas, former MLA Sanyam Lodha, R.R. Tiwari, Dr. Archana Sharma, Sunita Gathala and many other prominent Congressmen.
