'Party of loudmouths': CM Fadnavis says Rahul's Pune event for women a 'showoff'
CM Devendra Fadnavis attacked the Congress, accusing the party of losing touch with voters and relying on public statements to remain politically relevant. "Their job is just to make speeches every day and stay relevant through television; that's all they do. They have lost touch with the ground. This party is limited to merely issuing statements," he claimed.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis criticized Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for his stance on women's empowerment, alleging a contradiction between his public criticism of patriarchy and his stance on the Women's Reservation Bill. Fadnavis accused the Congress of losing touch with voters and relying solely on public statements to remain politically relevant, describing the party as a "directionless party of show-offs and loudmouths."
He questioned Gandhi's support for women's empowerment in light of his opposition to the Women's Reservation Bill, which seeks to reserve 33 percent of seats in the Lok Sabha and state legislative assemblies for women. Fadnavis argued that Gandhi's actions do not match his words, emphasizing that the party's primary goal is to make speeches and stay relevant through television, rather than addressing issues facing people on the ground.
