Nishikant Dubey Slams Rahul Gandhi Over 1991 Indo-Pak Military Pact, Congress Calls Him Stupid

New Delhi: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Nishikant Dubey on Friday stoked a brand new controversy after he known as Congress chief Rahul Gandhi hypocrite for wondering Foreign Minister S. Jaishankar over offering details about Operation Sindoor to Pakistan. 

The Congress clapped again on the BJP chief, pointing out that he “repeatedly displays his stupidity.” Dubey’s accusation stems from Rahul Gandhi’s grievance of S. Jaishankar, which the BJP MP perspectives as inconsistent with Gandhi’s earlier statements. Dubey referenced a 1991 Indo-Pak army transparency pact signed all through a Congress-backed executive to spotlight what he known as Congress’s longstanding alignment with a “Pakistani vote bank.”

In a put up on X, Dubey wrote, “Rahul Gandhi ji, this is an agreement made during the time of your government. In 1991, your party-supported government made an agreement that India and Pakistan will exchange information about any attack or army movement. Is this agreement treason?…”

Further proceeding his assault, Dubey wrote, “Congress is hand in glove with Pakistani vote bank, does it suit you to make objectionable comments on Foreign Minister Dr S Jaishankar ji.”

Speaking with ANI, he stated, “…We consider Pakistan a terrorist nation since 1947, we are fighting with them over the issue of Kashmir for 78 years and our part of Kashmir has been occupied by Pakistan. Even after that, you (Congress) have been giving concessions to Pakistan. Be it the Nehru-Liaquat Pact in 1950, Indus Water Treaty, the Simla Agreement of 1975. We don’t talk about how the defence system of a nation functions in the Parliament also…”

“But in 1991, when you were extending support to the Chandra Shekhar-led government and in 1994, when there was a government of P. V. Narasimha Rao, then it (agreement) was implemented and you wrote where the army, navy will be deployed and how the air force would function…Do all these things not amount to treason? Congress cheated the nation just for the sake of vote bank politics…India should start a case of Treason and an FIR should be registered against those who made this agreement and the Congress party…,” he persevered.

The Congress birthday party has driven again towards Dubey’s claims, accusing him of missing intelligence and time and again making silly remarks.

Speaking to ANI, Shrinate identified that the Congress withdrew its reinforce from the previous Prime Minister Chandrashekhar’s executive in March 1991 whilst the settlement was once signed in April.

“First of all, Nishikant Dubey repeatedly displays his stupidity. Former PM Rajiv Gandhi withdrew support from the Chandrashekhar government on 6 March 1991. First of all, this is probably an agreement signed in April 1991. This agreement is for peacetime. It is about ensuring that there is no misunderstanding between the armies of the two countries during peacetime,” she stated.

“When we have taken action now, there was a terrorist attack on us, we have retaliated aggressively… So first of all, Nishikant Dubey and the BJP are accepting that EAM Jaishankar informed, and what Rahul Gandhi was saying was the truth. Jaishankar informed Pakistan, and the BJP itself is confirming it… The agreement he is referring to is a peace-time agreement. Jaishankar ji had informed that there would be a war-like situation,” Supriya Shrinate stated.

Congress chief Pawan Khera additionally defended Rahul Gandhi’s fresh grievance of External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar. 

Khera pushed aside the allegation, pointing out, “This person needs to know that in late February 1991, the Indian National Congress had already withdrawn support from the Chandrashekhar government, and elections to the 10th Lok Sabha had been announced.”

The change between Dubey and the Congress birthday party has sparked a heated debate, with all sides buying and selling barbs and accusations. The controversy highlights the continuing tensions between the BJP and Congress.
