In a scathing tweet posted on Saturday, BJP MP Nishikant Dubey launched a no-holds-barred attack on Congress MP Rahul Gandhi, accusing him of misleading the people by repeatedly targeting Indian industrialists like Adani and Ambani. Dubey reminded Gandhi that the Congress party itself was born from industrial support and has deep-rooted ties with corporate entities.
“RahulGandhi, why do you mislead the people by talking about Adani, Ambani? Congress was born in an industrial house. Your grandmother Indira Gandhi received Rs 60 lakh from Birla alone for a by-election,” Dubey posted on X (formerly Twitter). He cited a 1969 parliamentary debate led by former PM Chandrashekhar that exposed Congress’s own cozy relationships with business houses, loans to their own firms, and monopolistic manufacturing privileges.
Dubey also questioned the hypocrisy of Congress leaders in vilifying India’s wealth creators while historically enriching themselves through industrial donations. He emphasized that while he holds no grudge against businessmen, the country deserves to know the truth about Congress’s “cheap politics.” This fresh outburst is the latest in Dubey’s campaign to hold the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty accountable.
Rajiv Gandhi-Reagan Letter and Tamil Genocide Question
Dubey had earlier stirred controversy on June 27 by sharing a letter from former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi to then US President Ronald Reagan dated February 8, 1988. The BJP MP questioned Rajiv Gandhi’s role in the Sri Lankan Tamil crisis and accused him of collaborating with foreign powers.
“Was Rajiv Gandhi responsible for the Tamil genocide? Why did India, a sovereign nation, feel the need to report its internal operations to America?” Dubey questioned. He also claimed that Rajiv’s letter revealed how India was acting as an American agent in regional matters, especially Afghanistan. “Even Navy ship rentals were mentioned as if we were begging. Is this the language of a free country or a colonial subject?” he wrote.
The letter, posted with annotations by Dubey, prompted a political storm and raised uncomfortable questions for the Congress party, particularly in Tamil Nadu, where Sri Lankan Tamil sentiments run deep.
Dubey’s Explosive CIA Claim: 150 Congress MPs Funded by USSR
Adding fuel to the fire, Dubey recently posted revelations based on a declassified 2011 CIA document. He alleged that over 150 Congress MPs received financial backing from the Soviet Union during the Cold War and worked under the supervision of Congress leader HKL Bhagat. “They weren’t influenced. They acted as Soviet agents,” Dubey wrote.
He said over 1,100 KGB operatives were operating in India, shaping narratives via senior bureaucrats, corporate entities, media houses, and policymakers. Dubey claimed 16,000 media articles were planted by Russian handlers to serve Soviet interests.
He also accused former Congress MP Subhadra Joshi of accepting Rs 5 lakh in election funding from the German government and later being rewarded with a post as president of the Indo-German Forum. “Was India sovereign or being run by foreign agents and ideological brokers? Congress must answer,” he said, demanding a full investigation.
Foreign Funding and George Soros Network: Congress Under Fire Again
This isn’t the first time Nishikant Dubey has raised questions about foreign involvement in Indian politics. In early 2025, he alleged in Parliament that NGOs linked to the Rajiv Gandhi Foundation received massive funding from global agencies like USAID and George Soros’s Open Society Foundation. According to him, this money funded anti-national activities, including protests against the Agnipath scheme and caste-based census demands.
In December 2024, Dubey connected Soros-funded OCCRP to a media disinformation campaign aimed at destabilizing India. He alleged that Rahul Gandhi was a part of this larger plot to malign India internationally and called for his interrogation.
China and Congress: Allegations of Undisclosed Funding
In 2023, Dubey made headlines by claiming that Congress received funding from China between 2005 and 2014. He cited foreign media reports suggesting that these funds were meant to manipulate India’s foreign policy and stir internal unrest. The Congress party had no convincing rebuttal, and instead demanded that Dubey’s remarks be expunged from parliamentary records.
Congress’s Dirty Past Can’t Be Hidden Anymore
Nishikant Dubey’s consistent barrage of allegations has peeled back the layers of what he calls the Congress party’s “slave mentality” and foreign entanglements. From Indira Gandhi’s industrial donations to Rajiv Gandhi’s submissive letters to foreign heads of state, and from Soviet-era influence to Soros-backed NGOs, the list of Congress’s questionable affiliations keeps growing.
While Rahul Gandhi tries to position himself as a crusader against crony capitalism, his own party’s history reeks of deep-rooted financial and ideological compromises. Dubey’s evidence-based takedowns serve as a stark reminder: before accusing others, the Congress must confront its own murky legacy. Whether it’s Russia, America, China, or Germany Congress’s ties abroad have always overshadowed its commitment to India first.
