What did Rahul say in the morning press conference?
1. "All that were created in 70 years have been demolished in just eight years. There is no democracy in Hindustan."
2. "The dictatorship of only four people is running in the country. We want to raise the issues of inflation, unemployment, and divisive politics."
3. "On one hand, we are not allowed to speak in Parliament, on the other we face arrests on the streets while protesting. This is the situation in our country."
4. "Unemployment is highest in India. The inflation is uncontrollable. We are not sure whether the Finance Minister (Nirmala Sitharaman) has these figures or whether she has been instructed to speak whatever she feels like."
5. "They fight with the Gandhi family because we, like crores of people in the country, fight for one ideology. We fight for democracy and communal harmony."
