Hon'ble Bharatiya Janata Party National President & Union Minister Shri Jagat Prakash Nadda's scathing attack on Congress

 

It is highly unfortunate that former Congress President Rahul Gandhi and current Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge Ji are not refraining from politicizing the tragic demise of Hon'ble former Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh Ji. Such a disgraceful mindset of the Congress deserves the strongest condemnation.

 

The Congress party, which failed to give genuine respect to Dr. Manmohan Singh Ji during his tenure, is now using his name for political gains. This is the same Congress that tarnished the dignity of the Prime Minister’s position by placing Sonia Gandhi as a “Super PM” above Dr. Singh, undermining his authority. Not only that, but the humiliation inflicted on Dr Manmohan Singh ji when Rahul Gandhi publicly tore up the ordinance remains unparalleled. And today, the same Rahul Gandhi is politicizing the tragic demise of the former Prime Minister!

 

The Gandhi family has consistently failed to respect or do justice to any prominent leader outside their own lineage, be it from within the Congress party or the opposition. Whether it was Babasaheb Ambedkar ji, the nation's first President Dr. Rajendra Prasad ji, Sardar Patel ji, Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri ji, Shri P.V. Narasimha Rao ji, Dr Pranab Mukherjee ji, Shri Sitaram Kesri, or the revered Atal Bihari Vajpayee—Congress and the Gandhi family have repeatedly insulted them. Even after the passing of Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee ji, Congress leaders and their supporters continued to dishonor his legacy, with several glaring examples of such behavior.

 

The government, under the leadership of Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji, allocated land for the memorial of former Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh ji and duly informed his family. Despite this, Congress continues to spread false narratives. It is important to recall Congress's history in such matters. On 23 December 2004, after the demise of former Prime Minister Hon’ble Shri P.V. Narasimha Rao ji, a request was made to establish a memorial in Delhi. However, the Congress Party denied approval for the same. The Congress did not even allow Shri P.V. Narasimha Rao ji's mortal remains are to be placed at the Congress headquarters. They did not want his last rites to be conducted in Delhi, which is why the cremation ultimately took place in Hyderabad. It was Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji who in 2015, ensured the construction of a Samadhi for Narasimha Rao Ji in Delhi and honored him by awarding the Bharat Ratna in 2024, truly recognizing and restoring his legacy.

 

When former President and Bharat Ratna Dr Pranab Mukherjee ji passed away in 2020, the Congress Working Committee did not even bother to convene a condolence meeting. Whether Congress remembers or not, let me remind them that in 2013, the UPA government led by Congress had decided to establish a "Rashtriya Smriti" and had resolved that no separate memorial would be built for any individual national personality.

 

It is our Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji who ensured that the contributions of all Hon’ble Prime Ministers are remembered and made known to the people of India by establishing the PM Museum. In contrast, Congress built memorials and Samadhis exclusively for members of its own family. If Congress truly wants to understand the meaning of respect, they should learn it from Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji.

 

According to several media reports, Congress governments named around 600 government schemes, educational institutions, awards, roads, national parks, museums, airports, ports, buildings, and sports events after members of the Nehru-Gandhi family, while initiatives named after other eminent personalities can be counted on one’s fingers. The Nation will neither forget nor forgive the historical misdeeds of a Congress devoid of principles. Rahul Gandhi ji, Mallikarjun Kharge ji, and other Congress leaders should refrain from indulging in such petty politics.
