Jaipur, Dec 12: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday launched a scathing attack on Central government and said that, In Indian politics today, there is a competition between two worlds ‘Hindu’ and ‘Hindutvavadi’. The two words have different meanings. I am Hindu but not Hindutvavadi.
Addressing the Mehangai Hatao Rally at Jaipur, he said “Hindutvavadis only want power and they are in power since 2014. We need to throw these Hindutvavadis out of power & bring back Hindus”.
“Who is Hindu? The one who embraces everybody, fears nobody, and respects every religion,” he said.
“Hindutvavadis spend their entire life in search of power. They want nothing but power & can do anything for it. They follow the path of ‘Sattagrah’, not ‘Satyagrah’. This country is of Hindus, not of Hindutvavadis”, he added.
“You can read any of (Hindu) scriptures. Be it Ramayana, Mahabharata, Geeta, or Upanishads. Tell me where is it written that a poor should be beaten up, where is it written that a marginalized person should be oppressed,” he asked.
Congress interim President Sonia Gandhi and party leader Priyanka Gandhi were also present at the Jaipur rally.
