Union Home Minister Amit Shah has leveled sharp criticism at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, accusing him of insulting the victims of the 1984 anti-Sikh riots. In a pointed remark, Shah stated that Rahul Gandhi has repeated the same behavior as his father, former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi, regarding the issue.
The accusation comes amid ongoing political discourse surrounding the historical events of 1984. By linking Rahul Gandhi’s stance to that of his father, Amit Shah emphasized the continuity of what he perceives as a lack of empathy towards the riot victims within the Gandhi family.
