ED questioning Rahul Gandhi exposes BJP's fear: Congress leader U T Khader
Mangaluru, Jun 15: The interrogation of Rahul Gandhi by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has exposed the BJP's constant fear of the Congress leader who has been fighting against the Centre's "anti-people" policies, deputy Leader of Opposition in the Karnataka assembly U T Khader said on Wednesday.
Addressing reporters here, he said the ruling BJP is following policies of "social injustice" in the country which is a matter of grave concern.
He said it is pitiable to see the ED stooping to such a level that showed the inability of the BJP government to counter the opposition.
"Rahul Gandhi is not just a leader, but a symbol of strength for the opposition. His commitment towards the people and constitutional principles are something which BJP fears which forces them to raise false allegations against him," Khader said.
The allegations are only aimed at tarnishing the image of the Congress leader, he added.

Trump says he ‘hasn’t even thought about’ continuing Iran ceasefire
Washington: US President Donald Trump has said he has not yet considered whether he would continue the ceasefire involving Iran, while also claiming the United States holds the advantage in negotiations.
Speaking to reporters, Trump said he was prepared to make a deal with “whoever is running the show” in Iran.
“They are fighting with each other, there’s tremendous infighting. They’re probably fighting for leadership in many cases. I think they’re fighting not to be leader because we knocked out two levels of leaders,” he said.
Trump added, “When they want they can call me. We have all the cards, we’ve won everything.”
Referring to ongoing negotiations, he said, “They gave us a paper that should’ve been better. And, interestingly, immediately when I cancelled it [envoy trip to Pakistan], within 10 minutes we got a new paper that was much better.”
“We talked about they will not have a nuclear weapon, very simple … They offered a lot, but not enough,” he added.
When asked whether he would continue the ceasefire, Trump replied, “I haven’t even thought about it.”
The remarks come as uncertainty remains over the future of the temporary truce and broader negotiations between Washington and Tehran.
