Texas: Addressing a gathering in Texas, United States, Congress MP and Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi on Sunday said the fear of BJP in India had vanished minutes after the 2024 Lok Sabha poll results were announced.

His speech in Texas had references to his first address to the Parliament after the 2024 poll results. Once again, Gandhi spoke about protecting the Constitution of India and how the BJP opposed him in the House as he highlighted the ‘abhaya mudra’(a sign of fearlessness)— a posture resembling the Congress’s poll symbol of palm of the hand facing outward, and the fingers upright and joined.

Not just the BJP, but Gandhi also attacked the RSS during his Texas speech.

“The RSS believes that India is one idea and we believe that India is a multiplicity of ideas. We believe that everybody should be allowed to participate, allowed to dream, and given space regardless of their caste, language, religion, tradition or history.”

“This is the fight, and the fight was crystallised in the election when millions of people in India clearly understood that the Prime Minister of India was attacking the Constitution of India,” he added.

Gandhi is on a three-day visit to the United States during which he will focus on strengthening India-US ties.

The Congress MP was warmly welcomed at the airport in Texas’s Dallas on Sunday by Congress workers led by Sam Pitroda, Chairman of the Indian Overseas Congress, along with members of the Indian diaspora.

‘Rahul is no Pappu, he is a strategist’

Speaking at the same event, Pitroda said Rahul Gandhi had a vision contrary to what the BJP promotes and that he was not a ‘pappu,’ as the BJP often mocked him. “He (Rahul Gandhi) has a vision contrary to what BJP promotes by spending crores of rupees. I must tell you, he is no Pappu. He is highly educated, well-read, a strategist with deep thinking on any subject and sometimes it is not very easy to understand him,” Pitroda said.
