Rahul Gandhi has it all wrong – dynasty or family connections in launching careers is “a tradition of the Congress and not of India”, BJP chief Amit Shah said today, responding to the Congress Vice President’s controversial remarks at Berkeley in California last month.
Mr Gandhi, whose family is the pivotal force of the Congress, told students “this is how India works” when he was asked about dynasty politics.
He also cited a list of Indians who have inherited their family’s legacy to contend that he should not be singled out for benefiting from his last name.
Among those offered as evidence by Mr Gandhi: the Ambanis, Abhishek Bachchan and several politicians like MK Stalin and Akhilesh Yadav.
Shah’s rebuttal was offered in his opening remarks at a huge conclave of the BJP in Delhi attended by 2,000 leaders including 13 Chief Ministers and the party’s state and national lawmakers.
