BJP leaders attack Rahul Gandhi; call Rajiv Gandhi the ‘father of mob lynching’
The Hindu
BJP’s Amit Malviya posted about various riots that happened under the Congress rule between 1969 and 1993 to take a swipe at Rahul Gandhi.
BJP leaders on Tuesday raked up the anti-Sikh riots of 1984 and called former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi the “father of mob lynching” to hit back at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for his attack on the government over incidents of lynching.
“Before 2014, the word ‘lynching’ was practically unheard of. #ThankYouModiJi,” Rahul Gandhi tweeted, days after two cases of lynching in the Congress-ruled Punjab. The two men were lynched in separate incidents, and both of them were accused of sacrilege by Sikh religious leaders.
Speaking to reporters, Union minister Ashwini Kumar Choubey noted that hundreds of Sikhs were killed in the 1984 riots, for which some Congress leaders were blamed, and also referred to the 1989 Bhagalpur riots to ask if these were not lynchings.
