NEW DELHI:
Stepping up the offensive, Rahul Gandhi today hit out at BJP’s ideological mentor RSS saying its belief was “murdering” individuality and that thought process is now running the country in which only one man knows everything from farmers to clothes.
In a brief but sharp speech at the national convention of NSUI, the Congress Vice President also took a dig at the Prime Minister saying after his predecessor Manmohan Singh criticised the health of economy in the morning yesterday, Narendra Modi took “pathshaala” (lessons) from him in the evening.
Gandhi, who had to wait at the dais for some time as the enthusiastic supporters cheered him, said that it took him 10 years to understand that this “disorder” is in the DNA and strength of Congress family and contrasted it with “order and discipline” at RSS shakhas which kills individual thinking.
“You see the shakhas of RSS. There is a straight queue in shakhas. If any one makes a noise there, he will be hit with a baton. Have you talked to any RSS and BJP leader? Discipline is just an excuse for them to murder individuality. And this is the thought process, which is running the country.
“One person knows everything. Whether it is about farmers’ issues or education or even clothes, only one person knows everything. We say let everyone come, sit together and speak on issues. A solution will emerge. They (RSS and BJP) say you come and sit here silently… Only one person will speak,” he said. (AGENCIES)
