Former Uttarakhand Chief Minister and senior Congress leader Harish Rawat hit out at Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) after its leaders criticized Rahul Gandhi for his remarks in the USA, adding that the BJP is scared of Rahul Gandhi.
Speaking to ANI, he said, “BJP is suffering from Rahul Gandhi’s phobia due to Rahul Gandhi’s US visit. BJP is scared of Rahul Gandhi because the way Rahul Gandhi is taking questions from the stage and answering them, he is getting a lot of praise and a different image of Rahul Gandhi is emerging, due to which BJP is scared and spreading lies.”

This statement comes after BJP leaders criticized Rahul Gandhi following his recent comments in his USA visit.

This is completely baseless and far from the truth,” Singh posted on X.
