You must be aware that a series of extremely objectionable, violent and rude statements are being made against the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi,” the Congress chief said.”I have to say with sadness that the violent language used by the leaders of the BJP and your allies is harmful for the future.The world is shocked that the Minister of State for Railways in the central government, a minister from BJP-ruled Uttar Pradesh, is calling the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha ‘number one terrorist’,” Kharge had said in an apparent reference to the remarks by MoS Railways Ravneet Singh Bittu and UP minister Raghuraj Singh.”An MLA from a party that has ties with your government in Maharashtra is announcing a reward of Rs 11 lakh to the person who ‘cuts off the tongue of the Leader of the Opposition and brings it to him’.A BJP leader and former MLA in Delhi is threatening to make him ‘fate like his grandmother’,” Kharge had said.Shiv Sena MLA Sanjay Gaikwad announced that he will give Rs 11 lakh to anyone chopping off Gandhi’s tongue for his remarks on scrapping the reservation system.Union minister Bittu on Sunday said if those “manufacturing bombs” were supporting Gandhi, he is the “number one terrorist”.Minister in the BJP’s UP government Raghuraj Singh reportedly made similar remarks as that of Bittu.Earlier, BJP leader Tarvinder Singh Marvah had purportedly made “threatening” remarks against Gandhi.
