Rahul Gandhi on ED raid

Maharashtra BJP president Chandrashekhar Bawankule accused Congress leader Rahul Gandhi of fabricating rumors about an imminent Enforcement Directorate (ED) raid to garner public sympathy, following Gandhi's claims that the raid was a response to his 'chakravyuh' speech in Parliament. BJP leaders, including Rajeev Chandrasekhar and Nishikant Dubey, criticized Gandhi for attempting to deflect accountability regarding his representation of Wayanad, where recent landslides have caused significant tragedy. They argued that Gandhi's assertions about the ED were a diversionary tactic to evade scrutiny for his lack of action in Wayanad. Opposition leaders, however, rallied in support of Gandhi, alleging that the BJP is misusing central agencies against political adversaries. The discourse highlights a broader political tussle, with Gandhi urging transparency regarding allegations against him while facing accusations of dramatics from the BJP. Criticism also extended to Gandhi's handling of caste discussions, reflecting deeper societal issues within the political narrative.
