Rahul Gandhi slams BJP for dynastic politics, calls Indian cabinet “Parivar Mandal”
New Delhi: In a scathing attack on the Modi government, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has dubbed the Indian cabinet a “Parivar Mandal” (family club) and shared a list of 20 ministers with extensive political family ties.
According to Kashmir Media Service, Rahul Gandhi’s attack comes after Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi repeatedly targeted the Congress during the election campaign campaign for the just-concluded Indian parliamentary polls, accusing the party of perpetuating dynastic politics.
However, Rahul Gandhi has now exposed the BJP’s own record, highlighting the extensive family connections within the Modi government.
“Those who call the tradition of struggle, service and sacrifice of generations as nepotism are distributing the will of power to their ‘sarkari parivar’ (government family),” Gandhi said in a post on X.
“This difference between the words and actions is called Narendra Modi,” he added.
Along with the post, Rahul shared a list of 20 Cabinet ministers whose relatives previously held positions in the Indian government or the state-level governments.
