NEW DELHI: Union Minister Jitendra Singh on Wednesday accused Congress leader Rahul Gandhi of using the Citizenship Amendment Bill (CAB) to provoke the people of the Northeast by issuing “misleading” and mischievous” statements.
In a statement, Singh said the Congress has lost its support base in the eight Northeastern states and now, Gandhi is looking for crutches with the support of a handful of disgruntled groups to revive his party’s fortunes against the rapidly increasing influence of the BJP.
“Rahul Gandhi is trying to provoke the people of the Northeast by issuing misleading and mischievous statements,” he said.
This “game plan” will never succeed as people are now awakened enough not to be taken in by the Congress jugglery. This is why the Congress has got reduced to its present dismal strength in the Lok Sabha, Singh said. (AGENCIES)
