Congress MP Rahul Gandhi today roared against the Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He claimed that it was pressure tactics to silence him and other opposition voices using central agencies.
According to NDTV, Mr Gandhi said, “If you are talking about National Herald, the entire matter is about intimidation. Narendra Modi and Amit Shah think that with a little pressure we will go silent. But we won’t. Whatever Narendra Modi and Amit Shah are doing against democracy, we will stand our ground,”
Earlier, Mr. Gandhi was questioned by the Enforcement Directorate in a money laundering case in June for nearly 50 hours over five days. Furthermore, his mother and Congress chief Sonia Gandhi was also questioned by the central agency over alleged money laundering connected to the National Herald newspaper.
Meanwhile, speaking to the reporters, Mr. Gandhi said that Congress MPs were getting ready to meet to discuss their strategy after the Enforcement Directorate sealed the office of Young Indian in Delhi over the case linked to National Herald.
Moreover, when Mr. Gandhi was questioned by the reporters about a threat by the BJP that he would be left with “no place to run,” Mr Gandhi shot back, “Who is talking about running? They are the one who talk of running. We won’t be intimidated. We are not scared of Narendra Modi, do whatever you want, it doesn’t matter. I will keep doing my job, that is to protect democracy, to maintain harmony in the country.”
