Rahul Gandhi competing with ally Samajwadi Party for minority votes, alleges BJP on stalled Sambhal visit
The HinduThe BJP on Wednesday flayed Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for trying to visit Sambhal in Uttar Pradesh without giving prior intimation to authorities and alleged that it was an act of sheer desperation as his party is competing with ally Samajwadi Party for the votes of the minority community. Addressing a press conference at the BJP headquarters here, party national spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi said Gandhi did not try to visit Sambhal out of “any sympathy” but to grab media attention and get a “better photo-op” than the leaders of his party’s ally Samajwadi Party. Mr. Gandhi, his sister Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and other senior Congress leaders reached the Ghazipur border in the morning where heavy police force was deployed and barricades put up to stop them from entering Sambhal. He said Mr. Gandhi, who is the Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha, was required to give a prior intimation to the authorities about his visit because he has been “highest level of security” after the Prime Minister.
