LoP and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi
Congress leader and Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi on Sunday called for a march to the Supreme Court, urging opposition parties and people who believe in the Constitution and democracy to join the demonstration.
Speaking about the recent protests in Delhi, Gandhi said young people had come out to protest without hatred and alleged that protesters were assaulted. He said, “This is not the kind of India we want.”
Gandhi said the proposed march would not be held in the name of any political party, individual, gender, state, community or caste. Instead, he said, “We will march as Indians — as every person who believes in democracy and wants to stand up for democracy.”
He appealed to people to join the march irrespective of their political affiliations, saying, “Walk with us. There is nothing to be afraid of.”
Yesterday, the nation’s young came out in Delhi to peacefully protest. They came with love in their hearts, not hatred or anger. They were beaten, both by cops and BJP goons.This is not the India we want.
Tomorrow, we will march to the Supreme Court as Indians, united beyond party, gender, caste, community and state.
Youth, all opposition parties, civil society groups, all those who believe in democracy and stand by the Constitution of India, will walk with us.
We will submit a memorandum to the Chief Justice on behalf of the nation, demanding an end to vote chori, halting of SIR and the resignation of Gyanesh Kumar.
Narendra Modi, Amit Shah, Ajit Doval and Mohan Bhagwat cannot silence India’s voice. These cowards cannot intimidate us. They will have to step aside.
We will march together, with love, brotherhood and patriotism.
Daro mat.
Tomorrow, all of India will march to the Supreme Court.
