BJP Questions Sonia Gandhis Book Choice, Calls for Accountability on Emergency

Mumbai, November 10 (Daily Kiran) : BJP leaders have targeted the Congress and the Samajwadi Party on various issues, with a particular focus on Sonia Gandhi’s recent book launch. BJP MLA Ram Kadam raised concerns about the book being published by a foreign company, questioning why Gandhi did not choose an Indian publisher instead.

Kadam highlighted that Sonia Gandhi, who married former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi in 1968, held foreign citizenship for nearly 15 years before obtaining Indian citizenship. He insisted that an Indian publishing house should have been selected for her book.

In response to the Bombay High Court‘s refusal to grant immediate relief regarding the Chhath Puja celebrations at Girgaum Chowpatty, Kadam emphasized the importance of respecting judicial decisions. He noted that Chhath Puja is a significant festival for Hindus, especially in North India, and assured that the event would proceed in compliance with court directives to avoid any inconvenience to others.

Meanwhile, Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak criticized the Congress party, accusing it of staging political dramas. He demanded that Congress apologize to the public for imposing the Emergency, claiming the party would go to any lengths, including suspending the Constitution, to regain power.

On the topic of the Special Investigation Report (SIR), Pathak stated that the responsibility lies entirely with the Election Commission of India. He urged the Commission to ensure that no eligible voter is left out of the electoral rolls and called for action against any officials found negligent.

Responding to Samajwadi Party leader Akhilesh Yadav’s comments, Pathak dismissed the likelihood of Yadav returning to power, suggesting that his dreams of governance would never materialize. He mockingly remarked that Yadav could only dream of attending dance performances in Saifai if he ever regained authority.
