Nagpur, Mar 23 (PTI) The Congress and the Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi on Monday held a protest in Nagpur seeking Narendra Modi government’s clarification on the Epstein Files.
They also slammed the Centre’s stand on the West Asia crisis. The protest march was from Samvidhan Square to the RSS headquarters here, but the participants stopped at Morris College Square, where they raised slogans against the Modi government, the BJP and Sangh Parivar.
The protest is to question the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh’s stand on the Epstein Files and Modi’s name cropping up in it, Maharashtra Congress chief Harshwardhan Sapkal said addressing the gathering.
“What is there in the Epstein Files that the PM is not replying on the issue but is toeing the US line in the war against Iran? The RSS must seek the resignation of Modi,” Sapkal added.
VBA chief Ambedkar said the organisers had given an idea to the RSS that the protest would reach its headquarters to seek a discussion with the organisation on the Indo-US trade deal and other policies of the Centre that were allegedly harming the country’s farmers and its public sector.
The banking system is worsening, the rupee is depreciating, and the country is becoming a slave of America, Ambedkar alleged.
“RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat speaks of nationalism but is it nationalism when Modi is toeing US President Donald Trump’s line,” he questioned.
The RSS should take a stand in the interest of the country and ask why Modi is following Trump, Ambedkar asserted. PTI CLS BNM
