Former Congress president Rahul Gandhi has alleged the whole “tamasha” around his remarks in the UK has been created by the government to divert attention from the Adani issue and asserted it is a “test of Indian democracy” as to whether he would be allowed to respond to the allegations by the BJP in Parliament.
Addressing a press conference at the AICC headquarters as reported by PTI , Gandhi said the question before the country is that whether after four BJP leaders have made allegations about a member of Parliament, that person would be given the same space as them or he be “going to be told to shut up”.
In an apparent reference to the controversy over his remarks in the UK, Gandhi said this whole thing is about distraction, and claimed that the government and Prime Minister Narendra Modi are “scared” over the Adani issue and that is why they have “prepared this whole tamasha”.
