RSS, BJP people do not emulate Lord Ram's way of life: Rahul Gandhi

TIL Desk/National/Malwa/ Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday said that “BJP and RSS people” do not lead their lives the way Lord Ram led his. Speaking at a rally here during his Bharat Jodo Yatra, he also said, citing an interaction with a priest on the way, that “Hey Ram”, the phrase used by Mahatma Gandhi, was a “way of life”.

Gandhi’s cross-country foot-march which is currently passing through Madhya Pradesh halted in Agar Malwa district on Friday evening. “A priest who came to meet me during the Yatra in Madhya Pradesh told me the meaning of ‘Hey Ram’, the words often used by Gandhiji.

“Hey Ram is a way of life. It taught the entire world the meaning of love, brotherhood, respect and tapasya (penance),” he said. Similarly, ‘Jai Siya Ram’ means Sita and Ram are one and Lord Ram fought for Sita’s honour, the Congress leader said. “Jai Shri Ram means hailing Lord Ram, but BJP and RSS people are not leading their lives like him (Lord Ram) and not fighting for the honour of women,” Rahul Gandhi alleged.
