News Daily Digital Desk: They are ‘enemies’ in local politics. They were the ones who sacrificed their lives to prevent Rahul Gandhi from becoming an MP in Oned Center in 2019. When Rahul Gandhi was dismissed from the post of MP, left activists forgot the political differences and stood by him. Even Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan, who is known to be a critic of Rahul, has also stood by the Congress leader.
Congress leaders went down the road when Rahul lost the post of MP. Left workers were also seen joining the procession of Congress workers on the streets. They say, there will be political struggle. We will oppose if Rahul becomes MP again next time. But before the fight of politics is the fight to save democracy. In fact, not only local leaders. Top leaders of Kerala CPM also stood by the Congress leader. Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan himself says, “Suppressing the opposition by force is an expression of fascist mentality.” This is yet another attack on democracy by the Sangh Parivar.”

Sitaram Yechury has always been close to Rahul. On this day too, he tweeted that the BJP has now chosen the path of criminal defamation to target the leaders of the opposition camp. It also comes on top of gross abuse of ED or CBI against the opposition. Resist and defeat such tyrannical attacks.” In fact, Trinamool leaders Mamata Banerjee and Sitaram Yechury have been vocal about standing by Rahul.

In all this, however, the government is taking one step after another against Rahul. It is heard that after canceling the post of MP, the process of vacating his Tughlaq Road house has also started. The Lok Sabha Secretariat has informed the concerned department that Rahul is no longer an MP and has been asked to take appropriate action. In this case, Rahul may have to vacate the Tughlaq Road bungalow within 1 month if he fails to obtain a stay order from the High Court.
Meanwhile, Congress is not giving up the fight. According to the sources, the party is starting a movement across the country with public awareness program, Save the Constitution program to protest the cancellation of Rahul’s membership. Congress leaders will hit the road from Monday. Congress leader Jairam Ramesh says that since 2014, Rahul has been condemning various wrong policies of the Modi government. He has put the Center at odds with everything including the flawed GST, demonetisation, foreign policy. So he had to be stopped. On top of that Bharat Jodo Yatra has turned into a mass movement across the country, all in all Narendra Modi and Co. have become extremely scared. This is his proof.” Thanking the opposition leaders who have stood by, Jairam Ramesh said that everyone will be spoken to. He also indicated joint movement in the coming days.
