BJP, RSS capturing all institutions in country, says Rahul Gandhi

TIL Desk/National/Hoshiarpur/ Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday accused the BJP and the RSS of capturing all institutions in the country, and claimed there is “pressure” on the media, Election Commission and the judiciary. He also took a swipe at the Aam Aadmi Party government in Punjab and asserted that Punjab should be run from Punjab only, not from Delhi.

Addressing the media here, Gandhi charged that the BJP and RSS have captured all the institutions in the country. “Today all the institutions of the country are controlled by the RSS and the BJP. There is a pressure on all institutions. Press is under pressure, bureaucracy is under pressure, the Election Commission is under pressure, they put pressure on the judiciary, he charged.

This is not a fight between one political party and another political party. It is now a fight between the institutions of the country, which were captured by them, and the opposition, he said. Normal democratic processes in the country is now missing, he claimed. Replying to a question on Bhagwant Mann, Gandhi said he had told the Punjab chief minister that Punjab can be run from Punjab only.
