BJP tears into Rahul after SC rebuke over Army remarks

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Monday launched a scathing attack on Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition (LoP) Rahul Gandhi after the Supreme Court rebuked the Congress MP over his remarks on the Indian Army, with the party asserting that the apex court's observations raise “serious concerns” over Gandhi's sense of “Indianness” and national responsibility.

During a press conference at the BJP headquarters in New Delhi, party spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia accused Gandhi of repeatedly undermining the Constitution and demoralising the Indian Armed Forces.

“The Constitution that Rahul Gandhi takes along with him everywhere -- if anyone is challenging it, it is Rahul Gandhi,” Bhatia said, adding, “It would not be wrong to say that if someone is destroying the confidence of our brave armed forces, it is Rahul Gandhi.”
