BJP firebrand Sudhanshu Trivedi has launched a blistering offensive against Rahul Gandhi, calling for a public mea culpa over the Congress leader’s Parliament speech invoking a non-existent book by General Manoj Mukund Naravane on the Galwan Valley 2020 face-off.
The rug was pulled from under Gandhi when Penguin disavowed any such publication, and Naravane himself affirmed no release is planned. Distributing any version, they warned, invites legal action for copyright violation.
Trivedi accused Gandhi of sabotaging Parliament and exploiting soldiers’ valor for politics. ‘From innocent boy to crafty liar—this behavior is inexcusable,’ he remarked, demanding immediate atonement post-clarifications.
The flashpoint unfolded amid heated debates, with Gandhi’s attempted readings from the alleged text provoking uproar, suspensions, and a stalled Lok Sabha. Official stance: the material, if real, awaits Defence Ministry vetting. Opposition cries foul on concealed border lapses.
Delhi Police’s FIR on manuscript leaks has escalated the drama. Trivedi decried Congress’s dive into gutter politics on security fronts. ‘Gandhi’s baseless narrative, now debunked, reveals his petty agenda,’ he concluded.
This clash not only gridlocks governance but erodes trust in opposition’s credibility, urging a return to substantive discourse over sensationalism.
