‘RSS’ Knickerwallahs from Nagpur can never decide Tamil Nadu’s future: Rahul Gandhi

Addressing a public meeting in Dhrarapuram town of the Tripura district in Tamil Nadu, ahead of the state Assembly elections, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, on Sunday, slammed Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) saying that he wont allow PM Modi to destroy the foundation of India. 

 

PM Modi has got some confusion, and he thinks that just because he can ‘blackmail’ the government of Tamil Nadu, he can control the people of the state as well, the Congress leader said. 

 

Calling RSS members as ?knickerwallahs (reference to their previous organisational uniform), Gandhi said that they could not decide the future of Tamil Nadu.

 

“PM Modi does not understand, only the Tamil people can decide the future of Tamil Nadu. Knickerwallahs from Nagpur can never ever decide the future of the state. It does not matter how many parades they have, Tamil Nadu’s future will be decided by the state’s youngsters. I am here to help you elect a government that looks after interest of Tamil people, he said.
“I am here to help you elect a government that Mr Modi can’t control. I am doing it for a reason, because I owe you a debt. I have a relationship with you that is not political but a family relationship. One built on love, affection and blood,” he added.

 

The Congress leader further alleged that Chinese troops have occupied Indian territory and the man with ₹56 inch-chest? (PM Modi) could not even utter the name China.

 

“For the first time, the Indian people can see that Chinese troops have occupied Indian territory. As we speak today, thousands of Chinese troops are occupying our territory and the man with a ₹56-inch chest? cannot even say the word China. That is the reality of our country,” he added.
