Talking to reporters, he also questioned the “silence” of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah after the remarks made by the leaders of ruling parties against Gandhi. “People from Delhi, Lucknow and Maharashtra are speaking the same language that he (Gandhi) will meet the same fate as that of his grandmother (Indira Gandhi) as well as his father (Rajiv Gandhi). The Home Minister and Prime Minister are not taking action means they are with the people who make such remarks,” Raut said.
His remark comes in the wake of Shiv Sena’s Buldhana MLA Sanjay Gaikwad kicking up a row by announcing a Rs 11 lakh reward to anyone chopping off Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s tongue for his remarks on scrapping the reservation system.
During his recent visit to the USA, Gandhi told students at the Georgetown University there that the Congress would think of scrapping reservation when “India is a fair place”, which he said is not the case right now.
