Hyderabad: Malkajgiri MP and BJP National Executive Member Etala Rajender launched a scathing attack on Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and the Congress governments at the Centre and in Telangana.
Speaking to the media, Rajender criticised Rahul Gandhi's statements and political conduct, questioning his leadership of the Congress party.

Rajender said India was built on the sacrifices of countless people and accused Rahul Gandhi of disrespecting the sacrifices of soldiers serving in extreme conditions. He also alleged that corruption in military vehicle procurement took place during Jawaharlal Nehru's tenure as Prime Minister.
Attacking the Congress party's political history, Rajender alleged that it had undermined democracy, dismissed elected state governments and presided over several major bomb blasts during its rule.
He questioned whether the Narendra Modi government had imposed President's Rule in any state and claimed that Congress had lost its political influence across several major states.
Referring to Karnataka, he alleged that the Congress government there was facing accusations of operating a 30 per cent commission system.
