BJP Criticizes Rahul Gandhi's Planned US Visit Amid Political Tensions
BJP leaders, notably spokesperson Pradeep Bhandari, have criticized Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for his planned US visit from November 16 to 19, accusing him of spending more time abroad than in India and questioning his commitment to domestic politics. The BJP dismissed Gandhi's allegations of electoral malpractice as distractions, instead labeling his foreign trips as neglect of duties. Gandhi's visit aims to engage with the Indian diaspora and students in New York and Chicago. The Congress has not publicly responded to these criticisms.
