New Delhi : The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) on Thursday slammed Rahul Gandhi for the farce of preparedness to face trial in the criminal defamation case only when the Supreme Court expressed opinion not to interfere.
“Then why RGandhi avoided the trial for two years under one pretext or other? Is he scared to face truth? He keeps on taking Uturn,” tweeted Dr Manmohan Vaidya, the Prachar Pramukh (head of RSS publicity department), on the RSS twitter handle.
Senior BJP leader Surbrmanyan Swamy tweeted: “The court flip flop of Buddhu (read Rahul) on the RSS alleged committing MG”s murder shows nervousness about Nehru family’s dark secret spilling out.”
BJP national secretary and spokesman Shrikant Sharma said, Rahul’s assertion in the Supreme Court to stand by his statement that the RSS killed Mahatma Gandhi was driven by “votebank politics” while another party spokesman Shahnawaz Hussain said his attack on the “nationalist outfit” would cause further fall in his party’s fortunes.
