On Wednesday (16 November), while talking to a large group of Congress activists in the Muslim-dominated power loom town of Bhiwandi, the party’s vice-president Rahul Gandhi called for action against the friends of the Prime Minister along with those who are hoarding black money.

Now, through demonetisation, he has taken money from each citizens’ pockets to give it to these industrialists who are his friends; no action has been taken against them; we demand action against Modi’s friends and those who have hoarded black money.

He was in Bhiwandi to take bail from the defamation case, filed by a Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) activist, Rajesh Kunte.

Gandhi claimed each and every citizen in the country was suffering today because of demonetisation.

But Modi is laughing and crying, laughing and crying, although no industrialists or black money hoarder stand in the long queues to exchange their old notes.

He added that he had come “to fight” the ideological war against the RSS.

On one hand it’s a fight for independence versus slavery. They want everybody to bend before them as they want to rule. But they cannot enslave this country as the ideals of Mahatma Gandhi are enshrined in our hearts.

The next date for hearing in Gandhi’s defamation case has been fixed for 28 January 2017.
