BJP: Rahul Gandhi pushing India towards anarchy, creating north-south divide

BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi has accused Rahul Gandhi of attempting to divide India along linguistic lines, particularly by criticizing Prime Minister Modi's policies towards the Tamil language and culture. Trivedi stated that the BJP has been actively promoting the Tamil language both domestically and internationally, praising it as the world's oldest language and its rich culture.

He alleged that Rahul Gandhi's efforts are aimed at pushing India towards anarchy and creating a divide between the north and south regions based on language.

Trivedi criticized Congress for opposing the placement of the sacred Sengol in the new Parliament building, which symbolizes Tamil culture. He also pointed out Modi's recent act of presenting a Russian translation of the Tamil literary work Thirukkural to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Trivedi expressed disappointment in Rahul Gandhi's use of the term "undeclared Emergency" against Modi, labeling it as baseless and reckless. He also addressed Rahul Gandhi's comments on the Indira Gandhi government, which Trivedi claimed were made in a public space and led to potential jail time under previous governments.

In addition to addressing Rahul Gandhi's statements, BJP MP Bansuri Swaraj criticized Congress for not taking action against JNU professor Angomcha Akoijam, who was recently dismissed from JNU for sexual harassment allegations. Swaraj questioned whether "nari samman" (women's empowerment) was merely a slogan or a policy for the Congress party. She urged Gandhi to take action against his own MP if he genuinely supports "nari samman" and denounces "smash the patriarchy" as mere political rhetoric.
