‘Fight Of Ideologies…Together We Will Win’: Rahul Gandhi Sounds Poll Bugle At Massive Rally In Maharashtra’s Nagpur

Nagpur: Addressing a massive rally under the banner ‘Hai Taiyaar Hum’ on Congress’s 139th foundation day in Maharashtra’s Nagpur on Thursday, Rahul Gandhi attacked the Bharatiya Janata Party and its ideological mentor RSS as the grand old party gears up for the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
Rahul highlighted that the upcoming Lok Sabha polls would represent a clash of two distinct ideologies.
“You do not fear anyone…this is a fight of ideologies…together we are going to win elections in Maharashtra and the country,” said Rahul.
Distinguishing ideologies, Rahul stated that the BJP’s ideology revolves around top-down orders, contrasting it with the Congress, where even a party worker can question decisions. He reiterated the Congress ideology, envisioning a country run by the people, emphasising that the fight for independence was not just against the British but also against the collaboration with Rajas and Maharajas.
Sense of enslavement in the BJP: Rahul
He shared insights from a former Congress member now in the BJP, who mentioned the challenges of survival within the BJP. According to the member, there is a sense of enslavement in the BJP, where orders come from the top, leaving little room for dissent.“A BJP MP, who was earlier with the Congress, recently told me that it is difficult to survive in BJP…he told me that …BJP me “gulami chalti hai”… orders come from top and we have no say… we have no choice but to follow the orders”Speaking further at the rally, the Congress leader emphasised that the party aims to empower people, citing examples like the white revolution led by women, the green revolution by farmers, and the IT revolution by youth. He criticised the BJP for benefiting a few billionaires and accused the RSS of taking India back to the pre-Independence era.
Party president, Mallikarjun Kharge, speaking on Congress’s 139th foundation day talked about the commitment to parliamentary democracy and equality. He said, “There are two ideologies in Nagpur. One ideology is progressive, which belongs to Baba Saheb Ambedkar. On the other side is RSS, which is destroying the nation.”
Kharge, along with Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, hoisted the national flag at the party headquarters in Nagpur.
Nana Patole likened the Congress ideology to that of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and Shahu-Phule-Ambedkar, expressing the intention to oust the BJP, drawing parallels to ending British rule. Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy and Karnataka Congress chief DK Shivakumar echoed the call to “Save Congress, save India” at the rally.

Muslim representative delegation met police commissioner Deven Bharti on Mumbai loudspeaker, stop action till Eid-ul-Adha: Azmi

Mumbai: Muslim representatives met Mumbai Police Commissioner Deven Bharti and lodged an objection against the removal of loudspeakers from mosques, saying that only mosques are being targeted, which is completely wrong, while the principle of noise pollution is equally applicable to all, but only on the complaint of BJP leader Kirit Somaiya there is a risk of deteriorating the environment by removing loudspeakers from mosques, and a demand was also made to stop police action to maintain law and order.
Maharashtra Samajwadi Party leader and Assembly member Abu Asim Azmi told the media after meeting the Police Commissioner on the loudspeaker issue that Mumbai Police Commissioner Deven Bharti said that no action will be taken against loudspeakers till Eid-ul-Azha, while Azmi drew the attention of the Police Commissioner on this issue that unilateral action is being taken only against mosques. The police take action after the complaint of Kirit Somaiya and then the action starts. He said that the issue of removing loudspeakers from mosques is threatening peace in Mumbai. Azmi said that the way Kirit Somaiya and Nitish Rane are demonstrating provocations has spoiled the atmosphere of Mumbai city.
The police should also take action against them to maintain law and order. Police Commissioner Deven Bharti has assured the delegation that he will take necessary steps on this issue and action will be taken as per the law. Abu Asim Azmi, while expressing concern over mischief on Eid-ul-Azha, told the Police Commissioner that the way some miscreants are constantly trying to create conflict in societies by offering sacrifices. On Nitish Rane’s venom regarding sacrifice in societies, Azmi said that sacrifice is offered in societies and it is done legally, there is no problem in it, but some people are presenting sacrifice as an issue to spoil the environment. He said that even in Hinduism, cats are offered, then no one objects. On Nitish Rane’s demand for virtual sacrifice, he said that Islam will follow Sharia and Muslims offer sacrifices only according to Sharia and the law has allowed us to do so.
Samajwadi Party leader Yousuf Abrahani, Advocate Amin Solkar, Khateeb and Imam of Hari Masjid Maulana Zubair Ahmed Barkati were also present in this representative delegation. Yousuf Abrahani said that legal action is being taken on the loudspeaker issue and the court is also being approached, while all the conditions imposed on the loudspeaker issue are illegal, while the Supreme Court had ordered decibel control and decibels have been fixed, accordingly, loudspeakers are used in mosques, but the police are taking action under pressure from the Kirit Somaiya and the police do not have the authority to remove loudspeakers from mosques, but despite this, this process is continuing, while the Mumbai Police Commissioner has also assured of necessary action on this issue.
