Political Turmoil: BJP’s Target on Rahul Gandhi
NEW DELHI: In a recent turn of events, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has intensified its criticism of the Congress party and its leader, Rahul Gandhi, claiming he has colluded with foreign entities to undermine India’s sovereignty. This accusation stems from Congress’s assertion that President Trump misrepresented USAID’s funding to India.
BJP’s Counterattack
BJP spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia has dismissed Congress’s claims, which were based on a report linking USAID’s $21 million funding to improving voter turnout in Bangladesh. Bhatia stated, “The disclosure about USAID funding to India came from the US President himself; no one else could have better knowledge about it.” He also highlighted a post from the US Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which mentioned this funding directly.
Allegations of Foreign Influence
BJP IT cell chief Amit Malviya accused the Congress party of hiding the truth, alleging that the media report referring to Bangladesh was a cover-up for foreign funding linked to George Soros’s Open Society Foundation. Bhatia further elaborated, claiming that the USAID funding was aimed at meddling with India’s internal politics and electoral processes.
Funding Discrepancies
Bhatia pointed out a significant difference in funding during different regimes, stating, “Over $2,000 million came to the Indian government from 2004 to 2013 during the UPA regime, while only $1.5 million has been received during Modi’s term.” He emphasized that foreign powers recognize Prime Minister Modi’s determination to protect India’s interests.
Conclusion
As political tensions rise, the BJP continues to label Rahul Gandhi as a “traitor,” asserting that his actions serve to weaken India. For the latest updates on this unfolding story, visit Looffers.com for news and insights.
