BJP today hit out at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his protest against SIR and intruding into Akashvani Bhawan. Briefing media in New Delhi, Party Spokesperson Dr Sudhanshu Trivedi said, the Congress first family, which for the past four generations ran a monarchical rule by strangling democracy, attempted to intrude into Akashvani today under the guise of democracy. He said, Rahul Gandhi is engaged in misleading the entire nation with baseless, incoherent and false statements. Mr Trivedi said, Rahul Gandhi himself and his party’s senior leaders have stated that voter duplication exists in many places but now he is protesting against SIR process. He alleged that the very same people who siphoned off rations meant for over five crore people and pocketed MGNREGA wages of over four crore people are now attempting to undermine democracy through dead and duplicate voters.
Earlier in the day, Mr Gandhi along with Priyanka Vadra and other congress leaders and supporters entered into Akashvani Bhawan.
