BIDAR (KARNATAKA): Describing BJP's prime ministerial candidate L K Advani as a "slave of RSS", Congress President Sonia Gandhi today said the
 |
"It is Advani, who is a slave of RSS because he wants to protect his chair. This is the reason why he panders to each and every wish of RSS," Gandhi told an election rally here.
Dismissing Advani's oft-repeated comment on Manmohan Singh being a weak Prime Minister as a "useless one", she asked whether the senior BJP leader could take any decision on his own "without the fear of RSS".
Gandhi said when Advani was BJP president he had given a "secular certificate" to Jinnah during his visit to Pakistan, which created a furore in the RSS and ultimately led to his resignation from the post.
"Advani must remember that a Prime Minister does not belong to one party but to the whole nation and an insult to him is an insult to the whole country," she said.
"Now the choice is left to the people. They have to decide who is weak, whether it is Prime Minister Manmohan Singh or BJP leader L K Advani," Gandhi said.
Accusing the BJP of "being sympathetic towards terrorists", Gandhi said it was during the NDA rule that "terrorists were released and escorted to Kandahar (during the hijack of an Indian Airlines flight).
She said it was the "efficient and diplomatic tackling of the Mumbai terror attacks by the UPA government which compelled Pakistan to concede responsibility in the issue".
"We will not tolerate any such attack against India," Gandhi said.
Attacking the BJP government in Karnataka for "improper utilisation" of central funds allotted for development work, she said "we gave crores of rupees to Karnataka. We really do not know how the funds have been utilised".
She also came down on the saffron party for the "rampant corruption" in the state and appealed to the people to cast their votes judiciously.
Highlighting the achievements of Congress government since Independence, Gandhi said whether it is industrialisation or modernisation of the country, nationalisation of banks, empowerment of women through Panchayat Raj institutions or signing the nuclear agreement, it is the Congress, which took the lead.
"The people have to take all this into account and make an informed choice," she said.
