REASI, Sept 10: Coming down heavily on Rahul Gandhi and Gandhi family for the blatant display of Congress flags on the Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine track, J&K BJP State president, Ravinder Raina today said that the Gandhi family has absolutely nothing to do with the religious activities and Rahul Gandhi deliberately used his visit to the holy shrine for political purpose.
Ravinder Raina accompanied by BJP vice-president Shakti Raj Parihar, Rajeev Sharma, Sheel Mangotra, Kuldeep Raj Dubey, Rohit Dubey and other senior leaders of party was addressing BJP workers’ meet at Arnas in Reasi district.
Ravinder Raina said that Rahul Gandhi and his family is not genuinely interested in Hindu religious activities but now frightened by the good works of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, his family is bound to take the religious path. He said that during earlier UPA Government, when Rahul Gandhi was about to visit Mata Kheer Bhawani temple in Kashmir, was stopped from doing so on the instructions from Sonia Gandhi and Ambika Soni.
“Congress has committed enough sins and now it is good that they want to seek mercy from divine Mother. But even now, Congress blatantly displayed its flags on the Mata Vaishno Devi track which proves that the party is only making false propaganda on the name of religion and deliberately used Mata Vaishno Devi track for political purpose”, Raina said.

Raina further said that, Rahul Gandhi’s claim that he was not here to do politics is a lie and Congress has made mockery of the sacred place. They do not know anything about patriotism either and have always betrayed even Bharat Mata on every single occasion, he said.
Meanwhile, Ravinder Raina in workers’ meet, focused on the organizational issues and future programmes of the party. He, at length, took stock of the ground situation and discussed the strategies to amplify the functioning of the party in the hilly region.
