The BJP has criticized Rahul Gandhi for his recent "smash the patriarchy" remark, accusing him of hypocrisy and questioning whether he applies the same principle within his own Congress party. BJP leader Bansuri Swaraj addressed a press conference, referring to Gandhi's August 22 remarks at an event in Pune, where he spoke about challenging patriarchal attitudes and restrictions placed on women.
Swaraj accused Gandhi of lacking a "vision" and "positive agenda," alleging that he uses material prepared by his research team to mislead voters and young people. She also cited controversies involving Congress leaders Supriya Shrinate and Randeep Surjewala, accusing Gandhi of remaining silent in the face of objectionable remarks.
