After Sadak Ka Gunda, Congress Leader used highly derogatory language against Indian Army. Sandeep Dikshit seems to be a frequest offenfender. He Said:
Sandeep Dikshit (born 15 August 1964) was a member of the 15th Lok Sabha of India.He represented the East Delhi constituency of Delhi and is a member of the Indian National Congress (INC) political party.
In June2017, He triggered a major controversy, by calling Indian Army chief General Bipin Rawat to a “goon on the street”.
He currently teaches Human Development at Jindal School of Government and Public policy, Sonepat.
But angry with shameful statements of Sandeep Dikshit, they ripped him apart:
Earlier, Former Congress MP Sandeep Dikshit on Sunday likened Army chief General Bipin Rawat to a “goon on the street” over his recent remarks, triggering a controversy.
While BJP sought an apology from Congress president Sonia Gandhi, AICC distanced itself from Dikshit’s remarks. Later, he withdrew his remarks and apologised. “Ours is not a mafia Army like Pakistani army which makes statements like goons on the street. It looks bad when our Army chief gives a statement like a ‘sadak ka goonda’ (goon on the street),” Dikshit said. He said the Indian Army was a great institution with culture. “I don’t think our Army chief lived up to that… I believe this Army chief does not live up to my image of what the Indian Army should be. I believe, the Army chief should not make political statements,” he said.
The controversy comes days after the act of Youth Congress members in Kerala slaughtering a calf to protest new cattle trade regulations drew wide condemnation and saw the AICC distancing itself from the incident. Dikshit’s remarks triggered heated discussions on social media.
MoS Kiren Rijiju tweeted, “What’s wrong with Congress Party? How dare Congress call Indian Army Chief as “Sadak Ka Gunda”!! (sic).”
Gen Rawat, in an interview, had defended Army Major Leetul Gogoi’s act of tying aKashmiri to his jeep as a “human shield” against stonepelters. “I wish these people, instead of throwing stones at us, were firing weapons at us. Then, I would have been happy. Then, I could do what I (wanted to do),” he had said.
