Hoshiarpur (PUNJAB), Jan 17: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi Tuesday accused the BJP and the RSS of capturing institutions and putting pressure on the EC and the judiciary, and also declared that he will not visit an RSS office even if someone slits his throat.
Answering a question, at a press conference here, on the possibility of reaching out to his cousin and BJP MP Varun Gandhi, he said their ideologies do not match.
The Congress leader said if Varun walks into the yatra he might face a problem, implying that the BJP may not approve of it. “I can never go to an RSS office. You can slit my throat, but I will not go. My family has an ideology, it has a thought system,” he told the presser on the sidelines of the Bharat Jodo Yatra.
Rahul Gandhi also accused the RSS and the BJP of controlling institutions.
“There is a pressure on all the institutions. There is a pressure on the press, bureaucracy, the Election Commission, judiciary,” he charged. (PTI)
