New Delhi, June 24 (NationPress) On the eve of the Emergency anniversary, BJP MP from Bihar, Sanjay Jaiswal, delivered a fierce critique of the Congress party, accusing it of relinquishing its responsibility to the public.
On Tuesday, Jaiswal stated that the Congress now functions exclusively under the command of a single family and has forsaken democratic principles and transparency in its operations.
“Every Congress leader may apologize individually, but the reality is that Congress has transformed into an entity that exists solely under the dominance of one family,” Jaiswal asserted.
Aiming his remarks at the party's leadership, he remarked, “Whatever directives come from the family, Congress obeys. They are no longer answerable to the citizens of this nation. When Manmohan Singh was Prime Minister, Rahul Gandhi wasted no time in tearing apart a cabinet-approved ordinance; what authority does Kharge ji hold in the party?”
These remarks arrive on a day when political figures from various parties reflect on the imposition of the Emergency in 1975, which the BJP often views as a hallmark of authoritarianism during Congress's governance.
Jaiswal also commended Prime Minister Narendra Modi for successfully launching Operation Sindhu, an initiative currently focused on evacuating stranded Indian nationals from Iran amid regional unrest.
“Our Prime Minister's character is to ensure that every Indian stuck anywhere in the world is brought back home safely,” Jaiswal emphasized, recalling, “During the intense conflict in Yemen, he even paused the warfare to evacuate our citizens. Today, Iran’s airspace is open solely for Indians, showcasing Prime Minister Modi’s prominence in global affairs.”
Operation Sindhu was initiated due to rising tensions in the Middle East and aims to safely repatriate Indian citizens. This mission is widely recognized as another demonstration of India’s proactive strategy to protect its diaspora during international emergencies.
