TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Congress president Rahul Gandhi took a swipe at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) over his hugging Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Parliament, saying the party’s MPs fear that he may embrace them too and hence take “two steps back” on seeing him.
Gandhi, who was severely criticised by BJP leaders for hugging Modi during his speech on the no-confidence motion against the government last week, said he may have a difference of opinion with the ruling party leaders and he can fight them, but he doesn’t need to hate them.
“You can fight someone with all your might, but hate is a choice… And I think that is something that is very important to understand. I may disagree with Mr (LK) Advani, I may have a completely different conception of the country from that of Mr Advani.
And I can fight Mr Advani on every single inch, but I don’t need to hate him,” Gandhi said at a book launch where the senior BJP leader and former deputy prime minister was also present. The Congress chief further said he could hug Advani and also fight him.
