NEW DELHI: Congress‘ Rahul Gandhi on Friday urged people to refrain from targeting BJP member and former Union minister Smriti Irani, who lost to Kishori Lal Sharma in Amethi in the recently concluded Lok Sabha elections. The advice followed digs at Irani on social media after she vacated her official bungalow recently.
“Winning and losing happen in life.I urge everyone to refrain from using derogatory language and being nasty towards Smriti Irani or any other leader for that matter,” Gandhi wrote on X.
“Humiliating and insulting people is a sign of weakness, not strength,” he added.
Reacting to Rahul Gandhi post on X, BJP’s IT department head, Amit Malviya said, “This is the most disingenuous message, ever. After unleashing Congress functionaries, like a pack of wolves, on the woman who defeated him in Amethi and smashed his arrogance to smithereens, this is rich. All this gibberish doesn’t take away from the fact that Smriti Irani forced ‘Balak Buddhi’ to abandon Amethi.”
