New Delhi: Congress leader Ajay Maken on Wednesday filed a complaint at Tughlak Road police station in Central Delhi against four leaders of the BJP and its allies for violent statements and hate speeches against Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi.
Talking to the media, Maken said, “We have filed a complaint against four people who have threatened Rahul Gandhi. One of them is a former Delhi BJP MLA, another is a Maharashtra MLA from Shiv Sena-Shinde, the third is a minister in the central government and the fourth is a minister from Uttar Pradesh.”
“An FIR should be filed against these four,” Maken said.
He said, “Calling the Leader of Opposition of the country a terrorist, exhibits personal hatred by the BJP and its alliance partners against Gandhi and such utterances are made only with the aim to cause unrest among the general masses to provoke rioting, breach of peace through the hate filled remarks”.
The Congress has filed police complaints against BJP leaders Tarvinder Singh Marwah, Raghuraj Singh, Ravneet Bittu (Minister of State for Railways) and Shiv Sena-Shinde MLA Sanjay Gaikwad.
He said that the politics of India has fallen to such a level that leaders of the BJP and its allies are giving violent statements against Rahul Gandhi whose grand mother and father have sacrificed their lives for the country.
“Rahul Gandhi is being targeted because he is fighting for the rights of minorities, dalits and down trodden and also to safeguard our Constitution. All the Congress workers are ready to take all the blows that will come towards our leader Rahul Gandhi,” Maken said.
