The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has criticized Rahul Gandhi over his recent speech in San Francisco, where he attacked Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his government. BJP leader Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi accused Gandhi of having Jinnah’s spirit enter his body whenever he is abroad and suggested that he should seek exorcism from a good exorcist. Naqvi claimed that Gandhi equates democracy with dynasty and is on a mission to defame India when he is abroad. Gandhi’s remarks were met with angry comments from the BJP, with UP Deputy CM Keshav Prasad Maurya stating that there is a stark difference in how Indians see themselves under the Congress and BJP governments and that NRIs now feel respected. Union Minister Anurag Thakur also criticized Gandhi for allegedly maligning India’s image on foreign soil due to his inability to accept Modi’s global popularity.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is one of the two major political parties in India. It was founded in 1980 and is currently the ruling party of India, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Rahul Gandhi is an Indian politician and the former President of the Indian National Congress party. He is a member of the Nehru-Gandhi family, which has been an important political force in India for several decades. Despite his family’s political background, Gandhi has come under criticism for his leadership of the Congress party, which has experienced significant electoral losses in recent years.
