Defence Minister Rajnath Singh launched a sharp attack on Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi for his remarks on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and India's foreign policy, calling them shameful and condemnable. Singh said he could not imagine someone with the Gandhi surname making such statements and that the comments hurt every Indian.
Singh questioned whether the Congress party can still claim the legacy of its past leaders after Rahul Gandhi's conduct. BJP allies Chirag Paswan and Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma also condemned the remarks, with Sarma accusing Gandhi of making inappropriate comments about a female head of state of a friendly country.
The BJP is milking the Gandhi surname angle and framing the attack as an insult to national prestige, while Congress will likely defend it as free speech. But both sides routinely trade personal barbs, drowning out policy debate. The real issue is India's foreign policy direction, not who said what. Will Parliament now debate the actual differences, or will this drama consume another session?
