Rahul says Arun Jaitley 'threatened' him on farm laws, son Rohan responds with reality check: 'Father died in...'
Senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday made a claim that former finance minister Arun Jaitley had threatened him to not speak against the farm laws, reported PTI, which were quashed by the BJP as "fake news". The BJP also asked the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha to stick to facts. Earlier in the day, Rahul Gandhi said, while addressing Congress' annual legal conclave at the Vigyan Bhawan, 'I remember when I was fighting the farm laws—he's not here anymore, so I really shouldn't say it, but I will—Arun Jaitley ji was sent to me to threaten me.' "He said to me, 'If you carry on down this path, opposing the government and fighting us on the farm laws, we will have to take action against you.' "I looked at him in the face and said, 'I think you don't know or have an idea who you're talking to. Because, we are Congress people, and we're not cowards. We never bend; the superpower British couldn't bend us and who the hell are you'." Rahul Gandhi added. Responding back to Rahul Gandhi's claims, Rohan Jaitley, son of the former union minister, slammed him over his remarks. Jaitley's son Rohan also took to X, saying, "Rahul Gandhi now claims my late father, Arun Jaitley, threatened him over the farm laws. Let me remind him, my father passed away in 2019. The farm laws were introduced in 2020." "More importantly, it was not in my father's nature to threaten anyone over an opposing view. He was a staunch democrat and always believed in building consensus," he wrote. 'If at all such a situation was to occur, as it often does in politics, he would invite free and open discussions to arrive at a mutually acceptable solution to all. That was simply who he was and that remains his legacy today.' "I would appreciate Rahul Gandhi being mindful while speaking of those not with us. He attempted something similar with Manohar Parrikar ji, politicising his final days which was in equally poor taste," he added. Apart from this, BJP IT cell head Amit Malviya wrote on X, "Fake News Alert. Rahul Gandhi claims that Arun Jaitley approached him to water down his opposition to the 2020 farm laws. Let's set the record straight – Arun Jaitley ji passed away on August, 24 2019." "The draft Farm Bills were brought to the Union Cabinet on June 3, 2020. The laws were enacted in September 2020," he said. "To suggest Arun Jaitley ji approached him for anything at all is factually incorrect and misleading," he said, adding, "Let's stick to facts and not rewrite timelines to suit narratives."

Op Sindoor: Those who attack India will not survive even in 'paatal lok', says Modi
ANI Op Sindoor: PM Modi says those who attack India will not survive even in 'paatal lok' hell; takes jibe at Oppn for "crying along with Pakistan" Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday took a jibe at Congress and Samajwadi Party for raising questions over Operation Sindoor and alleged that they could not handle the pain Pakistan is going through and are "crying along with them." Addressing a public meeting in Uttar Pradesh's Varanasi, he said, "Everyone understands that Pakistan is upset. But Congress and the Samajwadi Party (SP) cannot handle the pain that Pakistan is going through. There, the Aaka (masters) of the terrorists are crying, and here, Congress and SP are crying, seeing the condition of terrorists." On his first visit to Varanasi following the Pahalgam terrorist attack in April, PM Modi said that those who attack India "will not survive even in 'paatal lok' (hell)". Slamming Congress for MP Praniti Shinde's 'tamasha' remark for Operation Sindoor, he said that the party insults the valour of the Indian armed forces. "Congress is constantly insulting the valour of our forces. Congress has called Operation Sindoor a 'tamasha'... They dared to refer to our forces' valour and sisters' sindoor as 'tamasha', this is shamelessness," the Prime Minister said. Hitting back at Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav who raised questions on the timing of 'Operation Mahadev', PM Modi termed it as vote bank politics."In this politics of vote bank and appeasement, the Samajwadi Party is no less. Their leaders in Parliament were questioning why the Pahalgam terrorists were killed on this particular day. Should I telephone them and ask them before taking any action? Anyone with common sense should be able to answer, do we need to wait to kill terrorists? Should we have given them a chance to flee?"PM Modi further alleged that the SP gave a clean chit to terrorists when it was in power."They are the same people who would give a clean chit to terrorists when they were in power in UP, and now they are upset when terrorists are killed. They have a problem with the name of the operation as Sindoor," PM Modi Minister Modi hailed Operation Sindoor and said that he avenged the loss of the Pahalgam terror attack with the blessings of Lord a public meeting, PM Modi dedicated the success of Operation Sindoor to Lord Mahadev. The Prime Minister said, "This is the first time I have come to Kashi after Operation Sindoor. 26 innocent civilians were mercilessly killed by terrorists in Pahalgam... My heart was full of sorrow. I had pledged to take revenge for my daughters' sindoor, and I fulfilled it with the blessings of Mahadev. I dedicate the success of Operation Sindoor to the feet of Mahadev." He assured that anyone messing with India will not be Modi said, "When there is injustice and terror in front, Mahadev adorns his 'Rudra roop'. The world saw this face of India during Operation Sindoor. Anyone who messes with India will not be spared even in 'pataal lok'."Indian armed forces carried out Operation Sindoor on May 7 to avenge the terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam on April 22, which killed 26 people.
