Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of Opposition in India's Lok Sabha, is currently on a visit to the United States, where he has engaged with students and the Indian diaspora. He emphasized values like love, respect, and humility in Indian politics and criticized the BJP and RSS for promoting a restrictive vision of India. His remarks have sparked strong reactions from BJP leaders, who accused him of undermining Indian democracy and displaying immaturity. Union Minister Kiren Rijiju and other BJP spokespeople have condemned Gandhi's comments, calling them an attack on India and its institutions. Despite BJP's criticism, Gandhi has maintained that his objective is to address issues affecting India and uphold democratic values.
