Do or die’ movement like one in 1942 needed against ‘dictatorial’ govt: Rahul

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday said another ‘do or die’ movement like the one launched in 1942 is needed against the present “dictatorial government”, and asserted that dictatorship, inflation and unemployment will have to quit India.

In a Facebook post in Hindi on the anniversary of the launch of Quit India Movement, Gandhi said the movement, which started from then Bombay on August 9, 1942, had given sleepless nights to the British.

“On that August evening, people started gathering at the Gowalia Tank Maidan in Bombay and Gandhi ji gave the slogan ‘Do or Die’ with which the last chapter of British rule in India began,” the former Congress chief said.
