New Delhi: Leader of Opposition (LoP) in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi‘s remark that “we are now fighting the BJP, the RSS, and the Indian state itself” launched fresh controversy on Wednesday with BJP launching sharp attack against the Congress leader.

While speaking at the inauguration of the new Congress headquarters in Delhi, Gandhi said: “Do not think that we are fighting a fair fight. There is no fairness in this. If you believe that we are fighting a political organisation called the BJP or RSS, you have not understood what is going on. The BJP and the RSS have captured every single institution of our country. We are now fighting the BJP, the RSS and the Indian State itself.”

In response, Union Health Minister and BJP president JP Nadda has claimed that Congress’ “ugly truth” has been revealed by its own leader.

“Hidden no more, Congress’ ugly truth now stands exposed by their own leader. I ‘compliment’ Mr. Rahul Gandhi for saying clearly what the nation knows- that he is fighting the Indian state!,” Nadda said in a X post.

Continuing further, Nadda said that it is not a secret that Gandhi and his ecosystem have close links with Urban Naxals and the Deep State who want to “defame, demean and discredit” India. “His repeated actions have also strengthened this belief. Everything he has done or said has been in the direction of breaking India and dividing our society,” BJP President added.

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman has also said that Leader of Opposition, who took oath on the Constitution, is saying he is fighting the Indian State.

Slamming Rahul Gandhi’s comment, Union Minister for Petroleum and Natural Gas Hardeep Singh Puri said: “Tell him to get his mental stability checked,” ANI reports.

Addressing a press conference, BJP Spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia said: “The nation feels hurt and led down by an irresponsible LoP Rahul Gandhi. India deserves a more responsible, faithful Leader of the opposition. Truly, it is our misfortune that we have a part-time and immature LoP who also happens to be guided by forces like George Soros and forces that are against the integrity of our country.”
