PM Modi And Rahul Gandhi

In the Lok Sabha on Tuesday, Leader of the Opposition (LoP) Rahul Gandhi criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi's administration, stating, "In Modi ji's world, truth can be expunged." However, in actuality, the truth cannot be ignored. The truth is that I stated what needed to be said. They are free to remove as much as they like. Truth is truth.

Gandhi addressed the controversy over the removal of numerous of his statements from the Lower House proceedings in an interview with media on Tuesday outside Parliament.

His remarks sparked uproar from the Treasury benches by accusing the ruling party of creating communal tensions. Gandhi was criticized by Prime Minister Modi for supposedly characterizing all Hindus as aggressive.

Gandhi addressed the Motion of Thanks on the President's address during his first speech as Leader of the Opposition. He cited spiritual lessons to emphasize the importance of having no fear. Gandhi displayed pictures of Jesus Christ, Lord Shiva, and Guru Nanak together with a quotation from the Prophet Muhammad. He underlined that the main world faiths encourage bravery and reject fear. He made reference to Christianity, Buddhism, Sikhism, Islam, Hinduism, and Jainism when he said, "Do not be scared, do not scare others."

Gandhi's scathing remarks about the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) were removed from the official record, nevertheless. Claims that the wealthy are given preference over deserving students in the NEET exam, accusations that minorities are treated unfairly, criticism of businessmen Adani and Ambani, and claims that the Prime Minister's Office, not the Indian Army, is the source of the Agniveer Scheme were among the statements that were removed.

Gandhi was interrupted several times throughout his hour-and-forty-minute address, including twice by Prime Minister Modi and at least five times by cabinet ministers. Gandhi's apology was demanded by Home Minister Amit Shah, a sign of the intense atmosphere in the House.

Gandhi persisted, unfazed, saying, "Courage is a concept that is discussed in all religions. Every one of our faiths speaks of courage.

"Aap Hindu ho hi nahi" (You are not Hindu), he said, going on to question the BJP's qualifications. Hinduism teaches that one should stand up for what is right and not back down from or be afraid of the truth.

During the address, Prime Minister Modi interrupted to emphasize the seriousness of Gandhi's claims, saying, "This issue is serious." It is very problematic to refer to the Hindu community as a whole as violent.
