BJP’s Rajeev Chandrashekhar Mocks Rahul Gandhi’s Silence On TN Hooch Tragedy

In response to the hooch catastrophe in Kallakurichi, Tamil Nadu, BJP leader Rajeev Chandrasekhar blasted Congress MP Rahul Gandhi and challenged him to specify what actions the party is expecting from the DMK administration, including asking for the resignation of the state’s excise minister.

According to Rajeev Chandrasekhar, “The hooch tragedy in Tamil Nadu is one of the biggest tragedies of the hooch.” That Rahul’s Congress has said nothing against the Tamil Nadu government of their INDI Alliance partner is astonishing. Normally, Rahul’s Congress waves the Constitution and talks about defending people’s rights.”
He enquired as to whether Rahul Gandhi will call for the resignation of Tamil Nadu’s Excise Minister.

“It is not just shameful and crass on their part to use every tragedy that impacts a poor person and make it political,” he continued, “but Rahul Gandhi maintains a studious silence when this type of havoc is created in Tamil Nadu.” It is up to Rahul Gandhi and the Congress to make clear what actions they are expecting from the DMK administration, including pressing for the immediate resignation of Tamil Nadu’s Excise Minister.”

He said that Rahul Gandhi should clarify how they will mitigate the losses of the family members of the victims.
“It is shameful in and of itself to think that you can make up for every life lost by providing a small amount of money to the families of those who have passed away forever. Rahul Gandhi should address the tragedy in Tamil Nadu and explain how he plans to restore the lives of the 56 families who have lost loved ones because to the INDIA bloc government’s incompetence in the state, the speaker continued.
