Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut spoke to the media on Saturday, saying that Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis is lying about Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra. Raut claims that Fadnavis has falsely accused Gandhi’s Yatra of supporting groups that promote violence and unrest.
Raut mentioned recent issues in Maharashtra, like violence in Parbhani over damage done to a replica of the Indian Constitution, and the tragic murder of a village leader in Beed. He questioned Fadnavis’s understanding of who the real Naxals are.
Fadnavis has claimed that some organizations linked to Gandhi’s Yatra are harming democracy and encouraging “Urban Naxalism.” In response, Maharashtra Congress Chief Nana Patole defended Gandhi, stating that the Congress Party has never engaged in any activities against the law. He remembered the sacrifices of past leaders like Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi for the nation.
Patole wrote to Chief Minister Fadnavis, asking him to share which organizations he was talking about. He emphasized that many social groups work for the good of the state and support democracy. He concluded by affirming that Congress is committed to helping people and has always promoted peace.
