New Delhi, July 27 (SocialNews.XYZ) As Opposition MPs staged a protest at Makar Dwar of Parliament on Monday over police action during the Jantar Mantar protest, BJP MP Nishikant Dubey launched a sharp attack on Leader of Opposition (LoP) Rahul Gandhi, alleging a lack of transparency regarding his foreign visits and calling for investigation into them.
The Opposition members gathered with banners demanding accountability from Union Home Minister Amit Shah over the police action against students who were protesting against the alleged NEET paper leak and other examination-related irregularities.
Responding to the protest, Dubey said it was Rahul Gandhi, rather than the government, who should answer questions. He claimed that there had been no transparency regarding the Congress leader's overseas visits over the years.
"It is Rahul Gandhi who should be held accountable. No one knows about all the foreign trips he has undertaken from 2004 to 2026. He goes abroad, whom he meets, what he does, what kind of movement he talks about, and what funding he talks about. How were Soros' people present on his trip? What happened between Congress and China in 2008? No one knows it to date. This is not transparency," Dubey told reporters.
The BJP MP further said that the Leader of Opposition carries responsibilities similar to those of a national representative while travelling abroad and should present India's policies before the international community.
"He is the Leader of Opposition, and when the LoP embarks on a foreign visit, he has to act like a de facto Prime Minister; he has to tell people about India's policies. However, whenever Rahul Gandhi has visited foreign nations, he has always spoken against India, the government and the Constitution," Dubey said.
He also claimed that efforts would be made to seek Rahul Gandhi's removal as the Leader of Opposition and called for a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to examine the Congress leader's foreign visits.
"We will plan on proposing how to remove Rahul Gandhi from the post of LoP. I would urge the government to form an SIT to investigate his (Rahul Gandhi's) foreign visits. I would surely make efforts for this," he added.
Escalating his criticism further, the BJP MP alleged that Rahul Gandhi and Congress were staging a protest to hide what he described as "involvement in activities detrimental to the country's interests".
"All of them are involved in the conspiracy to break the country and the kind of incidents that are coming to light, the people who have funded, the people who have given money, the kind of things that have happened and in which Congress has the biggest contribution, Rahul Gandhi is a puppet sold in the hands of foreign powers. He is not Rahul Gandhi, he is a puppet of foreign powers," he added.
