Days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the offensive against the main opposition party and the Nehru-Gandhi family, Congress President Rahul Gandhi shared a video of Rajnath Singh praising former Prime Minister Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru for his contribution to Indian Democracy.
Rahul Gandhi shared a video to counter Prime Minister Narendra Modi's speech where he invoked Mahatma Gandhi and attacked Congress during the course of marathon reply in the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha to the debate on the motion of thanks on the President's address.
However, reacting to that, Rahul Gandhi shared a video saying, " Rajnath ji, thank you for showing the truth. Satyamev Jayate."
In a video, Rajnath Singh can be heard saying, "No one can deny the fact that Nehru was an experienced Swatantrata Sangram Senani... If there was someone at the forefront in taking efforts to strengthen the democracy in India, it was Nehru..."
Earlier this week, during his speech, Modi had alleged that the Congress had divided the country at the time of independence for its selfish interests.
"This is the same party that divided India. For decades, one party devoted all their energies in singing paeans to one family. The interests of the nation were over-looked just for the interests of one family," he said in his hard-hitting address.
Modi had also said that if Sardar Patel had been the country's first prime minister, then a part of Jammu and Kashmir would not be in Pakistan's control, claiming that most units of the Congress had backed Patel over Jawaharlal Nehru, who eventually became prime minister.
Meanwhile, taking a swipe at Modi at a rally in Karnataka for upcoming assembly elections, Rahul Gandhi said he is running the country by looking just in the rearview mirror, "which will cause accidents".
"...You (Modi) drive the vehicle by just looking in the rear view mirror, which will cause accidents. This country cannot be run by looking in the rearview mirror," Gandhi said.
