New Delhi: Tamil Nadu chief minister MK Stalin on Wednesday said he was deeply shocked by media reports on alleged threats issued against the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi by leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Eknath-Shinde-led Shiv Sena.<\/p>\n
\u201cDeeply shocked by media reports of a BJP leader\u2019s threat that Rahul Gandhi \u2018will meet the same fate as his grandmother,\u2019 and a Shinde Sena MLA\u2019s bounty for cutting his tongue, along with other intimidating threats,\u201d MK Stalin wrote on X.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy brother Rahul Gandhi\u2019s charisma and growing public support have clearly unsettled many, leading to such vile acts of intimidation,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
MK Stalin further said the Centre must swiftly act to ensure protection for the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Union government must act swiftly to ensure protection for the Leader of the Opposition and reaffirm that intimidation and violence have no place in our democracy,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Last week, the Congress shared a clip of BJP leader Tarvinder Singh Marvah purportedly \u201cthreatening\u201d Rahul Gandhi.<\/p>\n
Congress\u2019s media and publicity department head Pawan Khera shared a video on X in which BJP leader Tarvinder Singh Marvah was purportedly saying: \u201cRahul Gandhi baaz aaja nahi toh aane wale time mein tera bhi wohi haal hoga jo teri dadi ka haal hua (Rahul Gandhi, refrain from such things, otherwise in the coming time, you will also suffer the same fate as your grandmother)\u201d.<\/p>\n
On September 16, Shiv Sena MLA Sanjay Gaikwad said that he would give \u20b911 lakh as reward to anyone who \u201cchops off\u201d the tongue of leader of opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi.<\/p>\n
He had made the remark while criticising Gandhi over his statements on caste-based reservation, delivered during his trip to the United States.<\/p>\n
Days later, he courted another controversy by saying he would \u201cbury Congress dogs\u201d who would try to enter an event attended by Maharashtra chief minister Eknath Shinde.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
