TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday attacked the BJP over a mother-daughter duo allegedly immolating themselves during an anti-encroachment drive in Kanpur Dehat, saying it is called “dictatorship” when the arrogance of power takes away people’s right to live.
Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra also attacked the BJP government, saying its bulldozer blinded by inhumanity has become a threat to sensitivity. In a tweet in Hindi, Rahul Gandhi said, “When the arrogance of power takes away the people’s right to live, it is called dictatorship.” He said his mind is disturbed by the incident in Kanpur.
“This ‘bulldozer policy’ has become the face of cruelty of this government. India does not accept this,” the former Congress chief said. The Congress leaders’ attack came a day after the mother-daughter duo died allegedly due to self-immolation during an anti-encroachment drive in Kanpur Dehat.
