During the course of his speech, Thakur alleged that Rahul Gandhi’s speeches are written by “Uncle Sam”, in an apparent reference to party leader Sam Pitroda.The BJP MP claimed that Rahul Gandhi was using “borrowed wisdom” to make speeches in an attempt to be a “cool dude”.Thakur also said that reality and not “reels” make a “real” politician.Citing excerpts from Tharoor’s book “The Great Indian Novel”, the former Union minister attacked successive prime ministers from the Congress using abbreviations, including “N-Ji, IG and RG 1”.Tharoor intervened, saying his repeated references are from a satirical novel written years ago and the BJP leader did not understand the satire.The Congress MP from Thiruvananthapuram said he has written several other books which are not being quoted by Thakur because it is not convenient for the narrative he wanted to convey.Continuing with his attack, Thakur alleged that Rahul Gandhi does not understand the meaning of LoP and has misinterpreted it as “leader of propaganda”.Referring to the leader of the opposition’s remarks Monday on the budget halwa ceremony, Thakur referred to a series of alleged scams, including Bofors, CWG, 2G, fodder, urea, coal, jeep and National Herald, asking “who ate the halwa from the scams” and wondered whether it was sweet or bland.As he referred to the various scams, members from the treasury benches shouted “Congress-Congress”.
