'Stay at home, cook and talk less…' This is the RSS-BJP's view on women: Rahul Gandhi | News India

Rahul Gandhi on RSS and BJP: Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha and Congress MP from Rae Bareli Rahul Gandhi has gone on a three-day US tour. He interacted with students at the University of Texas in Dallas, USA. Meanwhile, he also targeted the Bharatiya Janata Party and the RSS. Rahul Gandhi said that the RSS believes that India is an idea and we believe that India is a plurality of ideas. We believe that all people should be allowed to participate, allowed to dream and should be given space regardless of their caste, language, religion, tradition or history.

He said that this fight became more clear in the election when millions of people of India realised that the Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi is attacking the Constitution of India. Everything I told you is in the Constitution. The Constitution is the foundation of modern India.

Talking about Indian women, Rahul Gandhi said, I believe in women empowerment. Making sure women get opportunities in business and providing them financial support if they want to start their own business and facilitating participation for women. Women have many issues. We need to look at this to enable their participation. The first step is to see women as men, accept that they can do everything that a man can do and recognise their strength.

Rahul Gandhi further said that this is part of the ideological conflict between BJP and us. BJP and RSS believe that women should be confined to traditional roles like staying at home, cooking and speaking less. We believe that women should have the freedom to do what they want to do.

What did Rahul Gandhi say about BJP?

The Congress leader further said that people understood one thing clearly in the elections and I saw that when I raised the issue of the Constitution, people understood what I was saying. They were saying, BJP is attacking our tradition, attacking our language, attacking our states and attacking our history.

Rahul Gandhi stressed that the most important thing is that the public has realised that whoever is attacking the Constitution of India is also attacking our religious tradition.
