Rahul’s speech at the Lok Sabha has created an uproar among BJP leaders with several condemning his speech.
Calling India as a union of states, he mentioned that the concept is defined by the fact that his “brother from Tamil Nadu has the same right” as his “sister from Maharashtra.
“There are two visions of this country. One vision is that it is a union of states, meaning it is a negotiation, meaning it is a conversation, meaning I go to my brother in Tamil Nadu and I say, ‘what do you want?’ and he says, ‘this is what I want’. He then asks me ‘what do you want?’ and I say ‘this is what I want’. It is a partnership, it is not a kingdom. You will never, ever in your entire life, rule over the people of Tamil Nadu. It can’t be done.” he said speaking first from the Opposition side on Wednesday.
