Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said Rahul should be the last person to speak about political decency.
Mr. Rahul Gandhi, those who prefer to feed biscuits to dogs in the presence of leaders from Assam and then offer them the same biscuits should be the last people to talk about political decency.
High command mindset is INC’s be all and end all. The people of India know it well.

Rahul said, "Government speaks of providing employment. 3 crore youth lost their jobs in 2021. Today India is facing the highest unemployment in 50 years. You talk of Made-in-India, Start-Up India, but the youth did not get the employment they were supposed to. The one they had has disappeared. The government pushed 23 crores, people, back into poverty."
