New Delhi: Posters protesting Narendra Modi’s visit to the United States, specifically New York, have allegedly surfaced in The Big Apple.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) sees Rahul Gandhi’s hand in this ‘hat’ campaign.
Launching a scathing attack, BJP MP Sudhanshu Trivedi accused the Congress leader of aligning with foreign entities which are out to harm India’s interests.
“After Rahul Gandhi’s return after playing politics with his sponsored pawns, I feel that the same group in America is now showing this hate advertisement against Prime Minister Narendra Modi,” Trivedi told ANI.
BJP’s IT cell head Amit Malviya shared an anti-Modi poster on X which reads, “Protest: Modi, You’re Not Welcome in New York” and calls on people to “raise your voice against a decade of oppression.”
A group named ‘Coalition for reclaiming democracy in India’ is organising a demonstration on Sunday at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Long Island, coinciding with Modi’s visit to the US.
The Prime Minister left for a three-day US trip earlier in the day. His key engagements include attending a Quad summit and a United Nations General Assembly address.
“This is an objectionable poster. It is a hate advertisement and it is beyond doubt that Congress leader Rahul Gandhi got the meeting and support of those forces who are declared enemies of India, are they the same group showing this hate advertisement?” Trivedi remarked.
Malviya hit out at Rahul as well, alleging that his overseas engagements have consistently been detrimental to India’s image.
“Every time Rahul Gandhi goes abroad, he indulges in the most divisive anti-India politics, including hobnobbing with agencies and collaborating with forces inimical to India’s interest. He has gone to the extent of pleading with western powers to interfere in Indian politics,” Malviya wrote on X, also claiming that Indian Overseas Congress chairman Sam Pitroda, a close aide of Rahul, was involved in organising the protest.
