As Rahul Gandhi flies off to Italy, BKU chief laments, says ‘he by no means visited us’: Details

Rahul Gandhi has been a person of high quality tastes and politics, is only a household enterprise that he needed to take up, it could look like. Ahead of New Years’ Eve, Rahul Gandhi has left the storm he created in India by mendacity in regards to the farm legal guidelines and has flown to Italy to allegedly meet his grandmother. The mom of Sonia Gandhi, who’s initially from Italy, nonetheless lives there and Rahul Gandhi appears to have flown down to satisfy her.
After media reviews emerged that Rahul Gandhi had left for Milan, Italy, on an impromptu shock trip in center of Punjab farmers vs Govt of India farm legal guidelines tussle, Congress trolls stored themselves busy attempting to refute these as ‘fake news’. Rahul Gandhi loyalist Saket Gokhale cried himself hoarse claiming that Rahul Gandhi has not gone for trip.
However, the trolls had been left purple confronted after Congress accepted that Rahul Gandhi has certainly gone off on a ‘personal trip’. While the celebration didn’t disclose the vacation spot of his trip, they haven’t denied Milan in Italy because the vacation spot both. Congress additionally celebrates its 136th basis day as we speak.
While the Congress cried sufferer and claimed that poor Rahul was being victimised for merely going to satisfy his grandmother, it’s pertinent to notice that solely did he miss the Foundation Day of Congress, he has additionally conveniently created hassle in India and himself escaped to Italy.
However, whereas fanning these protests and spreading pretend information, he forgot that for politicians to realize mileage out of throwing the nation into chaos, they really want to indicate up for the chaos too.
Reacting to Gandhi’s go to, Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) chief Rakesh Tikait mentioned that the Congress chief neither visited their protest website nor spoke to them.
“Rahul Gandhi neither appeared anywhere in the farmers’ dharna nor did he talk to anyone … Our opposition is very weak,” he mentioned.
It is pertinent to notice right here that BKU as an organisation had prolonged assist to Congress forward of the 2019 Lok Sabha elections. However, it’s now attention-grabbing that their chief has brazenly spoken, expressing disenchantment with Rahul Gandhi by no means actually showing to both converse to them or meet them, whereas fanning these protests from afar.
The Congress celebration and its leaders, particularly Gandhi have been concentrating on the Centre over three agriculture-marketing legal guidelines and have prolonged assist to agitating farmers.
On Thursday, the Congress chief met President Ram Nath Kovind as a part of his celebration delegation and urged {that a} session of Parliament needs to be convened to revoke the three agriculture legal guidelines.

Interestingly, whereas Rahul Gandhi and the Congress have been fanning these protests and mendacity via their enamel in regards to the legal guidelines, the Congress manifesto for 2019 promised precisely these reforms.
The Congress went as far as to dismiss the Essential Commodities Act of 1955 as belonging to the “age of controls.” Imagine the scenario when the Congress manifesto seems to take a potshot at Nehru.
It doesn’t finish right here. There can be an in depth path of proof of Dr. Manmohan Singh advocating for states to amend the APMC act and provides extra freedom to the farmer (see right here in 2012 and right here in 2009). But in typical UPA style, he didn’t really get something executed. And now when the Modi authorities has applied their very own manifesto merchandise, the Congress opportunistically has an issue with it.
While the Congress has no drawback doing u-turns to make sure chaos ensued within the nation, Rahul Gandhi appears to present desire to travelling to Italy, and the farm organisations are usually not completely happy.
