Jammu, 18 April (H.S.): Chief spokesperson BJP Mahila Morcha, Ritika Trehan today criticized the Congress party for protesting against the Enforcement Directorate’s (ED) investigation into the National Herald case involving Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi.
Addressing a press conference here, today, Trehan argued that the Congress is built on corruption and lies, and its protests are merely an attempt to orchestrate propaganda against PM Modi Government.
Ritika terms protest as an attempt to deflect accountability likening it to a “thief crying foul”. She asserted that the ED’s charge-sheet is a legal consequence of the Gandhis’ actions, rather than a political vendetta. She dismissed claims of political bias, pointing out that the case originated during Congress’ own rule. She criticized Congress for turning a legal issue into a political storm, suggesting that the Gandhi family’s “greed” led to their current predicament.
Ritika reiterated that the ED’s investigation is a legal process, and Congress’ protests are merely an attempt to deflect accountability. She said that the Gandhis should face the consequences of their actions rather than trying to politicize the issue. She emphasized that wrongdoers will face the consequences of their actions through the legal system.
Ritika asserted that the ED’s investigation is a legitimate legal process aimed at addressing financial irregularities. She said that individuals who have engaged in wrongdoing, such as corruption or financial misconduct, will be held accountable through the law. She underscored BJP’s commitment to upholding the rule of law and ensuring that those who violate it face the consequences. The party’s stance is that the legal system should be allowed to run its course, without interference or attempts to politicize the issue, added Ritika.
