The recent remarks made by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi during his visit to Cambridge University in London have stirred up controversy, with Union Minister Anurag Thakur and BJP MP Vivek Thakur criticizing his language, thoughts, and working style. Anurag Thakur called Rahul Gandhi a “storm of controversies,” alleging that he has taken a contract from abroad to defame India and hide his failures. Meanwhile, Vivek Thakur accused Rahul Gandhi of running the agenda of another country and stated that he may move a privilege motion against him in the upcoming session.
During his address at Cambridge University, Rahul Gandhi spoke on the topic of “Learning to Listen in the 21st Century” and highlighted the need for new thinking to promote democratic values in the world. He also discussed the decline in the construction sector in democratic countries like India and America, which has exposed large-scale inequality and resentment. Rahul Gandhi further mentioned his experience during the Bharat Jodo Yatra, where he encountered thousands of people carrying the tricolor and pointed out that this is the power of listening to people and non-violence.
However, it was Rahul Gandhi’s comments on the media and judiciary being under control in India, as well as his claim that he was spied on using Pegasus software, that sparked criticism from Anurag Thakur and Vivek Thakur. Anurag Thakur alleged that Rahul Gandhi has repeatedly defamed India and has taken a contract from abroad to do so. Meanwhile, Vivek Thakur accused him of presenting a false picture of India and running the agenda of another country.
Overall, Rahul Gandhi’s comments at Cambridge University have become the subject of political debate, with some praising his ideas while others questioning his motives and working style. The controversy surrounding his statements highlights the need for constructive dialogue and critical analysis of political speeches and actions.
