Rahul Gandhi has no maturity and understanding of India: BJP
New Delhi, Aug 24 (IBNS): BJP leader Sambit Patra on Friday attacked Rahul Gandhi for comparing the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh with the Muslim Brotherhood and said the Congress President has 'no maturity and understanding' of India.
Muslim Brotherhood is a transnational Sunni Islamist organization founded in Egypt by the Islamic scholar and schoolteacher Hassan al-Banna in 1928.
The organization gained supporters throughout the Arab world and influenced other Islamist groups such as Hamas.The party faced periodic government crackdowns for alleged terrorist activities
"Rahul ji you have no maturity and understanding of India. You have no facets. The only quality you possess is hatred against PM Modi and BJP," Patra said while addressing a press conference here.
"You have said that the ideology of the government is that of the Muslim Brotherhood? You're a parliamentarian and the president of a Congress party," he said.
Attacking Narendra Modi, Congress chief Rahul Gandhi on Friday said the Prime Minister does not follow a 'deeply thought out strategy' in dealing with Pakistan.
"There is no deeply thought out strategy by PM Modi when it comes to Pakistan," Gandhi said.
Speaking at an event organised by the Indian Overseas Congress, Gandhi said: "Doklam is not an isolated issue. It was a part of a sequence of events, it was a process. Prime Minister is episodic. He views Doklam as an event. If he was carefully watching the process, he could've stopped it.The truth is the Chinese are still in Doklam today."
Attacking the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, Gandhi said it is trying to change the nature of India.
"RSS is trying to change the nature of India. Other parties haven't tried to capture India's institutions. RSS's idea is similar to the idea of Muslim Brotherhood in the Arab world," he said.
Targeting the Central government, Gandhi said: "If you understand deeply the design of India, you will see that we are punching below our weight. I don't see India maximising it's power."
"By creating divisions between 1.3billion people, India's strengths are reduced," he said.
