Rahul Gandhi-Ravneet Bittu Spar Outside Parliament, Exchange 'Traitor' vs 'Desh Ke Dushman' jibes

New Delhi: Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi and Union Minister of State (MoS) for Railways, Ranveet Singh Bittu, on Wednesday got engaged in a heated war of words outside the Parliament, as the former called Bittu a ''traitor.''

Notably, when the Union MoS Ravneet Singh Bittu passed by the protesting Congress MPs at Makar Dwar, Lok Sabha LoP Rahul Gandhi said, "Here is a traitor walking right by. Look at the face..." It is worthy to mentioned here that Rahul Gandhi also offered to shake his hands, saying, "Hello brother, my traitor friend. Don't worry, you will come back (to Congress)."

On the other hand, Union MoS Ravneet Singh Bittu refused to shake hands with him, and called him, "Desh ke dushman.."

Further, Rahul Gandhi targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, "I don't think PM will have the guts to come to the Lok Sabha today because if he comes, I am going to give him this book. If the PM comes, I will go physically and hand him this book so he can read it and the country can get to know the truth."

He continued to add, "...Every youngster in India should see that this book exists. This is Mr Naravane's book. He has given an entire account of Ladakh in this book; I have been told that I cannot quote this book. The main line is what the PM said - "jo uchit samjho wo karo". When the (former) Chief of Army Staff General Naravane called up Rajnath Singh ji and said that Chinese tanks have reached the Kailash Ridge, so what should we do? First, Rajnath Singh did not respond to him. He asked Jaishankar ji, NSA and Rajnath Singh but received no reply. He then called up Rajnath Singh once again. Rajnath Singh told him that he would ask the 'top'.

He added, ''The standing order of the 'top' was that if Chinese forces come in, we should not fire on them without permission. Naravane ji and our Army wanted to fire on those tanks because they had entered our territory. Narendra Modi ji gave a message that "jo uchit samjho wo karo". It means that Narendra Modi did not fulfil his duties; he told the Army chief to do whatever he wants as "mere bas ki nahi hai." Naravane ji writes, 'I felt really alone, I was abandoned by the entire establishment."
