Lucknow, Feb. 25 -- Deputy chief minister Brajesh Pathak on Tuesday asserted that Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was behind 'shirtless' protest at the AI Global Summit in New Delhi recently. Talking to media persons at the BJP office, Pathak slammed Rahul's claim of being a "Babar Sher" (lion), saying hewas actually a pawn of foreign powers. He said Rahul's politics involved spreading anarchy, instigating riots, and tarnishing India's image abroad. He said Rahul Gandhi's support for the "nude protest" at AI Global Summit showed it was acually he who was behind it. "Rahul Gandhi has reached a level of falsehood, from which there is no return. The baseless allegations Rahul Gandhi makes against Prime Minister Modi and the Indian government every day, and the venom he spews on social media, are not only condemnable but also anti- constitution," Pathak said. Protest is part of democracy, but resorting to "nudity" and "anarchy" in the name of protest is against Indian culture and India's great heritage. Pathak said that Rahul Gandhi has become the national spokesperson for anti-India forces in the country. He is the biggest brand ambassador of negative politics in the country. The truth is that the Rajiv Gandhi Foundation, which receives Chinese funding, is now teaching us about "national defence." The public is watching and will soon destroy the Congress and Rahul Gandhi's "empire of lies."...
