In an attempt to criticise the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Rahul Gandhi spoke at the Congress's 139th Foundation Day rally in Nagpur on Thursday under the rally named "Hain Taiyyar Hum" (we are ready). But the Congressman's mistake during his venomous speech was quickly picked up by the BJP.

At a gathering, Rahul Gandhi launched a full-bore assault on the BJP, pointing out that the party had contributed to the struggle for Indian independence, among other things.

BJP leader Shehzad Poonawalla posted a video of Rahul Gandhi's lengthy speech on X. The video emphasised a gaffe Rahul Gandhi made when he remarked, "Angrezon ki ladai, angrezon ke khilaf thi (The fight of the British was against the British)" during his address.

He captioned the tweet saying, "Aayein. Angrezon ki ladai, angrezon ke khilaf thi. Rahul Baba."

Rahul Gandhi's speech at Nagpur, where the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) has its headquarters, was a call to arms for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.

The Congress MP accused the BJP and RSS of reverting the country to the pre-independence era of slavery, and claimed that the BJP's ideology is that of "Raja-Maharajas" (kings) who do not listen to anyone and issue orders from the top that everyone must obey.

He further stated that the BJP-led central government has returned many people to poverty.

Rahul Gandhi further stated that if the Opposition's INDIA alliance wins the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, a caste census will be conducted.

Rahul Gandhi slammed the BJP for questioning the Congress's contribution to the country's development, pointing out that prior to independence, the princely states were "in partnership with the British," whereas the Constitution shaped by Mahatma Gandhi, BR Ambedkar, and Jawaharlal Nehru protected people's rights and gave every citizen the right to vote.
