New Delhi, June 1
Congress president Rahul Gandhi today said the party’s newly-elected 52 Lok Sabha members will fight every inch of the way like “a pride of brave-hearted lions” to protect the Constitution and the country’s institutions and there will be no walkover for the BJP.
Addressing the meeting of the Congress Parliamentary Party, Gandhi cautioned the lawmakers that it will “be like the British period, when not a single institution supported the Congress” and asserted “yet we fought and won and we are going to do it again”.
“It does not matter what institutions are standing against these 52. These 52 members are going to fight the BJP every single inch, and that applies to the members from Rajya Sabha as well,” he told the MPs.
The pep talk comes as the party struggles to come to terms with its second successive crushing defeat. — TNS/PTI
Be more aggressive
Members need to be a little more aggressive. Last time, if the Speaker used to give us five minutes, this time it may be two, but in those two minutes, we will put forth what the Congress believes. Rahul Gandhi, Congress President
