BJP renews attack on Rahul Gandhi, alleges Soros link and meeting with ‘anti-India’ elements

The ruling BJP on Friday reiterated its allegation of a link between billionaire investor George Soros and Rahul Gandhi, claiming that the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha met “enemies of India” during his recent visit to Germany.

Questioning what kind of “conspiracy he was hatching against the country” by “joining hands with such forces”, party spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia shared a purported photograph of Gandhi with Berlin-based Hertie School President Prof. Cornelia Woll and described it as “proof” of his meeting “anti-India forces” abroad.

Addressing the media, Bhatia claimed that Woll is one of the trustees of the Central European University, which he said is funded by a foundation associated with US-based billionaire George Soros.

“Rahul Gandhi and George Soros are like flesh and soul, and now further proof of this has emerged. Why is it that whenever a Parliament session is underway, Rahul Gandhi travels abroad and meets people who are enemies of India, who are jealous of India, and who attack India’s integrity? What kind of anti-India agenda is this, in which the Leader of the Opposition is conspiring against India with foreign forces?” Bhatia alleged.

This is not the first time Rahul Gandhi has been “found linked to anti-India activities”, Bhatia further claimed, calling him the “Mir Jafar of India.”

“George Soros gives anti-India statements, works against India, and funds riots. But he is not an Indian citizen—unlike Gandhi, who has taken an oath to protect India’s Constitution,” he added.
