Rathore Distributes Chocolates, Calls Rahul Gandhi’s Comment Childish

Jaipur, May 21. During a vociferous protest at the Rajasthan BJP office, state party president Madan Rathore personally handed out Melody toffees to cadres to mock Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s recent attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah. The protest, organized to denounce what the BJP termed offensive language, featured sharp criticism of Gandhi’s alleged “Melody toffee” observation, which Rathore said reflected political frustration rather than thoughtful critique. Labeling Gandhi as intellectually immature, the BJP leader claimed his remarks were dragging the Congress party toward self-destruction. Workers chanted anti-Congress slogans before marching through Jaipur streets and burning an effigy at Chaumun House Circle. Rathore also rebutted Congress allegations over the NEET paper leak, stating the National Testing Agency had moved quickly and that previous Congress governments had ignored similar scandals. He praised Modi’s diplomatic initiatives for elevating India’s global profile while accusing the opposition of resorting to superficial attacks. The protest served as both a show of strength and a pointed reminder that the BJP intends to counter opposition narratives with both substance and symbolism. By the end of the day, the message was clear: the ruling party views Gandhi’s statements as a political gift rather than a serious threat.
