Congress’ Bharat Bachao Rally Organised To Save Gandhi Family, Says Javadekar

Mumbai: Union Minister Prakash Javadekar, took a dig at Congress saying that its ‘Bharat Bachao Rally’ was not to save India but to the Gandhi family.

Speaking to the media here, the BJP leader said that the rally was not aimed at saving the Congress, which witnessed two consecutive embarrassing defeats in the general elections.

“The rally was not meant to save the country. It was not even to save the Congress party, but it was intended to save the family,” he told reporters.

Reacting to Rahul Gandhi’s refusal to apologize to the ‘rape in India’ comment, Javadekar said the Congress leader’s remarks were “rude”, for which the country would not forgive him.

“He will not apologize about the statement that he made which was disrespectful to women. Even if he will apologize, the country will not forgive him. Nobody made such an uncivilized statement in the history of Indian politics,” he said.

Held at the Bharat Bachao rally held at Ramlila Ground here and addressed by several senior party leaders including Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
