Ranchi, March 29: Congress national spokesperson Akhilesh Pratap Singh today said that one can be labelled as Naxalite, Pakistani-Khalistani, and Chinese if one speaks out against the government.
Addressing a press conference here at the state Congress office, he claimed that when Rahul Gandhi spoke out against Adani-Ambani for corruption, his membership was revoked, and that theft was committed by not performing chowkidari for the thief. In reference to the Hindenburg report, he stated that the thief was caught stealing on the day the report arrived.
He claimed that Rahul Gandhi’s voice could be silenced in the house but not on the road. He went on to say that the Congress brought the East India Company to the doorstep of Buckingham Palace for the country’s independence, and that the BJP will meet the same fate.
He accused the government of being biased against the opposition, claiming that action had been taken against 90% of the opposition’s members. It is an attempt to murder democracy, he added.
Spokesperson Singh explained how the BJP government is preventing public dissent in the country.
“When we did a Satyagraha programme at Rajghat in Delhi, the police stopped us; if that isn’t democracy murder, what is?” When the party leaders took out a torchlight procession yesterday, the Delhi police arrested all of them under Section 144. When the MPs were leaving the Parliament and going to the ED office, the entire opposition party was stopped by the police by imposing Section 144,” he said, claiming that the people of the country will stand with the Congress and respond to the Bharatiya Janata Party in the upcoming elections.
