“The direct connection of the official office bearers of Congress with Tushar Goel, the Chief of the RTI Cell of the ‘Indian Youth Congress’, who is accused of such a big drug scandal that directly pushes the youth of the country into drug addiction, shows that if they get even a little power, into what abyss they will push the country,” the translated version of BJP National Spokesperson, Dr. Sudhanshu Trivedi statement read.
देश के युवाओं को सीधे नशे में धकेलने वाले इतने बड़े ड्रग्स कांड के आरोपी, तुषार गोयल, ‘इंडियन यूथ कांग्रेस’ के RTI सेल के चीफ, के साथ कांग्रेस के आधिकारिक पदाधिकारियों का सीधा संबंध दिखाता है कि अगर इन्हें थोड़ी सी भी शक्ति मिली, तो ये देश को किस गर्त में धकेल देंगे…
