Haryana CM Demands Apology from Rahul Gandhi for Alleged Insult to Hindus

Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini has accused Congress leader Rahul Gandhi of insulting Hindus during a Lok Sabha speech. Saini demanded an apology from Gandhi and criticized other Congress leaders for justifying the speech. The CM also slammed Gandhi's conduct and rhetoric, urging Congress to guide him better.

In a strong condemnation, Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini on Tuesday demanded an apology from Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for allegedly insulting Hindus during his speech in the Lok Sabha. Speaking at a press conference, Saini accused Gandhi of spreading lies and damaging the dignity of Parliament.

Gandhi, who delivered his first speech as Leader of Opposition, had criticized the BJP for dividing people on communal lines. However, Saini alleged that Gandhi had labeled Hindus as violent and hateful, a characterization the CM termed 'unfortunate.'

Urging the Congress to help Gandhi enhance his knowledge and parliamentary conduct, Saini also mentioned historical incidents like the 1984 anti-Sikh riots and the violence against Kashmiri Pandits. He called for greater accountability and responsibility from the opposition leader.
