On Monday, Union Minister Kiren Rijiju stated that issues before the country should not be seen with political lenses but rather fight against anti-India forces. According to the media reports, the Union Minister said, “I think that few issues before the country shouldn’t be seen with political lenses. George Soros and his links – that have come to light – we do not see it as an issue relating Congress party, Rahul Gandhi . We should take the issue seriously – if it is related to anti-India forces. We do not see this as party politics”.
“We have told Congress and other parties that we will discuss over the Constitution on December 13 and 14 (in Lok Sabha) and on December 16 and 17 (in Rajya Sabha). I want to appeal to the leaders of the Congress party and its workers that if even their leaders are found to have links with anti-India forces, they also should raise their voices and we should be united and fight unitedly against anti-India forces”, he said.
Further speaking on the George Soros issue, Rijiju said, “Regarding the George Soros issue, the reports that have come out in the public domain – the charges are serious. Be it a member of parliament or a common man, everyone should work for the country. We appeal to be united and fight against anti-India forces.” This development comes as the BJP on Sunday alleged that former Congress president Sonia Gandhi has links to an organisation financed by the George Soros Foundation which has backed the idea of Kashmir as an independent nation. This association shows the influence of foreign entities in India’s internal affairs, the ruling party said in a series of posts on X.
The party said, “Notably, the FDL-AP Foundation has expressed their views that treat Kashmir as a separate entity”. It said, “This association between Sonia Gandhi and an organisation that has backed the idea of Kashmir as an independent nation expresses the influence of foreign entities on India’s internal affairs and the political impact of such connections”.
