With the BJP accusing him of insulting OBCs with his « Modi surname » remark, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday said he has been talking of brotherhood in all his speeches and the ruling party was just trying to divert attention from the Adani issue by making such allegations.
Gandhi was on Thursday sentenced to two years in jail by a Surat court in a 2019 criminal defamation case over his « why all thieves have Modi surname » remark.
Several BJP leaders, including party chief J P Nadda, have accused Gandhi of insulting Other Backward Classes (OBCs) through his remark in 2019.
Asked about the BJP’s allegation, Gandhi said at a press conference here, « Look at any of my speeches in the Bharat Jodo Yatra, I am saying that all communities are the same, everyone should move forward together, there should be brotherhood, there should be no hate, there should be no violence.
