Rahul Gandhi chastised by External Affairs Minister, nice and proper
Rahul Gandhi himself said that he had been told that IFS officers do not listen to anything, they were just getting orders from the government and there is no conversation.
“I was talking to some bureaucrats from Europe and they were saying that the Indian Foreign Service has completely changed and they don’t listen to anything — they are arrogant. Now they just telling us what orders they are getting, there is no conversation; you can’t do that,” Rahul Gandhi said.
Such remarks only demonstrates his level of understanding things. This so called leader of a national level political party has listened to the British Officials and has concluded that IFS officers following the ORDERS of Government of India are doing a wrong thing. Only a nitwit can come to such conclusions.
In his remarks at London event, Rahul Gandhi also accused the Centre of promoting “massive concentration of power and capital”. It seems he has made a habit of criticizing I die in foreign seminars. Such people should understand clearly, that today’s India does not care for any good certificate from any WESTERN country or for that matter from any others too. India will always act in its National interest like all others.
“I think it’s very dangerous for one company to control all airports, all ports, all the infrastructure. It (private sector monopoly) has never existed in this form. It has never existed with such a massive concentration of power and capital. This is another aspect that is throttling the conversation because the current Indian government is controlling the media through this concentration of capital,” added Rahul Gandhi further demonstrating his wrapped sense of thinking.
Hitting out at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his remarks concerning “complete change” in the Indian Foreign Service (IFS), External Minster S Jaishankar has said that the change is not called “arrogance” but “confidence and defending national interest”.
The remarks came after Rahul Gandhi said at an event in London that he had been told by bureaucrats in Europe that IFS has changed and the officers are “arrogant”.
Jaishankar said in a tweet that the IFS officers follow the orders of the government and protect national interest while countering arguments of others.
“Yes, the Indian Foreign Service has changed. Yes, they follow the orders of the Government. Yes, they counter the arguments of others. No, it’s not called Arrogance. It is called Confidence. And it is called defending National Interest,” Jaishankar said. He also attached a clip of Rahul Gandhi’s remarks. In his remarks at the ‘Ideas for India’ conference in London, Gandhi said.
Congress Party general secretary Randeep Singh Surjewala, as usual came to defend his Masters Voice. He retorted to Jaishankar’s remarks on Gandhi’s tweet and said there had been foreign policy bloopers.
“Yes, it is also called being subservient to the political masters in face of foreign policy bloopers. Yes, it is called not being able to stand up to China in face of illegal occupation of our territory. Yes, it is called furthering the agenda of a party rather then the Nation,” Surjewala said in a tweet.
Surjewala has just forgotten about the man responsible for gifting away an Independent country like Tibet to China followed by large tracts of Indian territory in region of Ladakh
Rahul Gandhi said Congress believes that every single Indian should be given the same opportunities. The task for the Opposition is really to give a new vision to the people of India, an economic vision.
Congress has the ideology at the national level. Congress is a structure that is enabling the Opposition. The ideological battle that is taking place is between the national vision of the RSS and the national vision of Congress,” he said.
