Rawat targeted Rahul Gandhi
Targeting the former National President of Congress, Rahul Gandhi, Rawat said that his ideology does not become Gandhian just by the surname Gandhi. He said that hanging ‘Janeu’ outside cannot change his identity, he (Rahul Gandhi) only talks. Rawat alleged that the former Congress president was only cashing in on Gandhi’s name.
Reacting to Rahul Gandhi’s recent statement in America, Rawat said that the efforts of the Congress leader will not benefit the party and soon it (Congress) will be a thing of the past. The former Chief Minister of Uttarakhand said, “Rahul Gandhi is speaking in desperation seeing the poor condition of his party. He is speaking under mental stress. The public will not accept a person who is going through mental stress.”
‘Akhilesh wants to learn the quality of drama from Kejriwal’
On Samajwadi Party (SP) national president Akhilesh Yadav’s meeting with Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Rawat said, “There is no bigger gimmick leader in this country than Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. Akhilesh Yadav wants to learn the quality of drama from Kejriwal.
He said that the public is familiar with the ‘mask’ of the SP. Rawat said that the SP has done the work of throwing Uttar Pradesh into ‘Gunda Raj’ during its reign. The BJP leader said that the SP made the mafia its cadre and then made the mafia respectable. The public will once again reject the SP in the coming times.
