Congress leader Rahul Gandhi today made a big statement about his cousin and BJP MP Varun Gandhi, who is being speculated to leave his party and join the Congress. Rahul Gandhi, who continues to grab headlines for his Bharat Jodo Yatra, says he can lovingly meet and hug his cousin Varun Gandhi, however, does not agree or support his ideology. Rahul Gandhi has made it clear that Congress party can be a problem for Varun Gandhi.
Rahul Gandhi said that Varun Gandhi had at some point accepted the ideology of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), which he can never accept. Rahul Gandhi, who recently took a jibe at the RSS and called them ‘Kauravs’ of the 21st century, said he would prefer to be beheaded before setting foot in an RSS office, which is an ideological fountainhead for the ruling BJP. He said that his family has an ideology, a thought system.
Referring to an incident, Rahul Gandhi said that years ago Varun Gandhi had told him that RSS was doing very good work in the country. He said, “I told him that if you have read and seen the views of our family, you will not accept it.”
Pilibhit MP Varun Gandhi, who has a rebellious attitude and criticizes the policies of his own party and government from time to time, is in discussion about leaving the BJP and joining the Congress.
