BJP is scared of Rahul Gandhi's 'Students' Echo' program: Sanjay Raut!

Politics has intensified regarding the 'Students' Echo' program to be held in Pune by Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi. Shiv Sena (UBT) Rajya Sabha member Sanjay Raut said that the Bharatiya Janata Party is scared of this program.

Sanjay Raut said, “Rahul Gandhi is coming to Pune for the 'Students' Echo' program. Thousands of students, especially girls, will participate in the program and interact with Rahul Gandhi.”

He said, “Pune is such a place, the spark of independence also came from here. The echo of the students will arise from here and will go to the entire country, and because of this the Bharatiya Janata Party is scared.”

Raut expressed displeasure over the conditions imposed by the police. He said, “Rahul Gandhi, besides being the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, is also a respected leader of the country.

Rahul Gandhi is going to come here today, and the police has imposed more than 30 conditions. Yes, the Prime Minister comes, the Union Home Minister comes. Many BJP leaders come here, did you put conditions on them? Does this kind of behavior with the Leader of the Opposition happen in a democracy?”
