Rahul Gandhi Denounces Centre’s Actions, Claims Democracy is Under Threat

Rahul Gandhi accuses the Centre of undermining democracy in India, asserting that the country’s democratic credentials are a facade. He condemns the BJP’s freezing of Congress’ bank accounts, labeling it as a criminal act aimed at crippling opposition parties.

Damage to Electoral Process

Gandhi highlights the detrimental impact of the frozen accounts on the Congress party’s ability to conduct election campaigns and support its candidates and workers. He criticizes the lack of response from institutions like the Election Commission, emphasizing the urgency of the situation.

According to Gandhi, the freezing of Congress’ bank accounts is not just an attack on the party but on Indian democracy as a whole. He denounces the silence of democratic institutions tasked with upholding the democratic framework, particularly the Election Commission.

Legal Battles and Political Ramifications

Gandhi mentions the dismissal of the Congress Party’s plea by the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, indicating ongoing legal battles. He reiterates his commitment to fighting against divisive forces, symbolized by his reference to ‘Asura-shakti’ or forces of hatred.

The press conference, attended by senior Congress leaders including Sonia Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge, underscores the party’s unified stance against the BJP’s actions. The party vows to continue its fight against what it perceives as attacks on democracy and fundamental rights.
