Rahul Gandhi making anti-India statements on foreign platforms: Amit Shah

New Delhi: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday slammed Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi for making anti-India statements on foreign platforms, threatening the nation's security, hurting sentiments and speaking about abolishing reservation.

On his social media handle X, Shah said that by speaking about abolition of reservation, Gandhi had again brought the Congress's anti-reservation face to the forefront.

He also accused the former Congress president of making statements that were causing rift on the lines of regionalism, religion, and linguistic differences.

“Standing with forces that conspire to divide the country and making anti-national statements have become a habit for Rahul Gandhi and the Congress party. Whether it is supporting the JKNC's anti-national and anti-reservation agenda in J&K or making anti-India statements on foreign platforms, Rahul Gandhi has always threatened the nation's security and hurt sentiments,” Shah said.

“By speaking about abolishing reservations in the country, Rahul Gandhi has once again brought the Congress's anti-reservation face to the forefront. The thoughts that were in his mind eventually found their way out as words,” Shah said.

“I want to tell Rahul Gandhi that as long as the BJP is there, neither can anyone abolish reservations nor can anyone mess with the nation's security,” he asserted.

It may be mentioned that Rahul Gandhi, who is on a visit to the United States during an interaction had said, “We will think of scrapping reservations, when India is a fair place."
