Rahul Gandhi needs to introspect or else, there will be no revival of the Cong: Maha CM Fadnavis
Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis refuted allegations levelled by Congress MP Rahul Gandhi on Friday, alleging irregularities in the Maharashtra state voters list by saying that such claims stem from the fear of imminent defeat facing the Congress in the Delhi assembly polls.
"Rahul Gandhi has only provided covering fire after sensing a huge defeat for the Congress in the Delhi assembly elections," Fadnavis told media persons in Nagpur on Friday.
Fadnavis also tweeted his reaction to Rahul's allegations on X which read: "When the same joke is repeated again and again, it does not make you laugh (Jab ek hee chutkula bar bar sunaya jaye to uspar hansa nahi karte)". Fadnavis tweeted this statement on X, tagging Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's X handle.
While speaking to media persons in Nagpur on Friday, Fadnavis also said that Rahul Gandhi, who is the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, needs to introspect or else, there will be no revival of the Congress.
