Sambit Patra On Congress: Congress is continuously targeting the Modi government regarding the funeral and memorial of Dr. Manmohan Singh. Meanwhile, Rahul Gandhi on Friday (December 27, 2024) accused the Modi government of insulting Manmohan Singh. BJP MP and party spokesperson Sambit Patra has hit back at these allegations. BJP leader Sambit Patra while targeting Congress said that Congress insulted everyone from Sardar Patel to Narasimha Rao. Rahul Gandhi did not even spare Manmohan Singh.
During the press conference at the BJP headquarters, Sambit Patra said, “Even when the entire nation is mourning the demise of a virtuous martyr, Rahul Gandhi and the Gandhi family are not desisting from their politics. This is the politics of Congress and Gandhi family. Congress had insulted former Prime Minister Narasimha Rao. Dr. Manmohan Singh’s stature is very big. Rahul Gandhi had even insulted Manmohan Singh. Not only this, Congress also insulted Atal Bihari Vajpayee. Congress party is spreading misleading propaganda on Manmohan Singh. The Union Cabinet has decided to establish the memorial.
Gaurav Bhatia taunted
BJP leader Gaurav Bhatia took a dig at Congress, Sonia Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi and said that the people of BJP wholeheartedly respect the contribution of Dr. Manmohan Singh, but why is former Prime Minister PV Narasimha Rao not given the last rites by the Congress. Given what they deserve.
People of BJP respect Dr. Manmohan Singh
BJP leader Gaurav Bhatia posted an X saying, “My sister Priyanka, Dr. Manmohan Singh are the pride of the country and every citizen of the country, especially the Prime Minister. Narendra Modi The government led by and we the people of BJP wholeheartedly respect his contribution to the country.
‘You decided to do cheap, petty politics’
Bhatia further wrote, “Since you have decided to do cheap, petty politics and talk about honoring former Prime Ministers, every citizen of the country wants to know that the last rites of former Prime Minister PV Narasimha Rao will be given to him by the Congress Party. Why were they not given what they deserved? Did Sonia Gandhi or Rahul Gandhi go to pay tribute to Narasimha Rao after the sad news of his demise? Please share the picture.
Will go together to pay tribute to Narasimha Rao
Bhatia further wrote in the post, “The mortal remains of PV Narasimha Rao were not allowed to enter the Congress headquarters. His family was told that his last rites should be performed in his native city and not in New Delhi. Is this respect to be given? I am sure that you and Rahul Gandhi will definitely muster the courage to ask these difficult questions to your mother Sonia Gandhi. And yes, please do share the address of the mausoleum built by Congress for Narasimha Rao. Will go together to pay tribute. Our government has honored his contribution by awarding him Bharat Ratna posthumously. waiting your answer. Citizen of India. Gaurav Bhatia.
My sister Priyanka,
Dr. Manmohan Singh ji is the pride of the country and every citizen of the country, especially Shri @narendramodi The government led by Ji and we the people of BJP wholeheartedly respect his contribution to the country.
Since you have decided to do cheap, petty politics and ex… https://t.co/NCbSQPnKr2

BJP insulted Dr. Manmohan Singh
Regarding Dr. Manmohan Singh’s last rites being performed at Nigambodh Ghat, Rahul Gandhi also tweeted, “By performing the last rites of Dr. Manmohan Singh, the great son of Mother India and the first Prime Minister of the Sikh community, at Nigambodh Ghat today, the present government will be honored.” He has been completely insulted by this side. He was the Prime Minister of India for a decade, during his tenure the country became an economic superpower and his policies are still supporting the poor and backward classes of the country.
Till date, respecting the dignity of all the former Prime Ministers, their last rites were performed in authorized mausoleums so that every person could pay homage without any inconvenience. Dr. Manmohan Singh deserves our highest respect and mausoleum. The government should have shown respect towards this great son of the country and his glorious community.
The present government has completely insulted Dr. Manmohan Singh, the great son of Mother India and the first Prime Minister of the Sikh community, by conducting his last rites at Nigambodh Ghat today.
He was the Prime Minister of India for a decade, during his tenure the country became an economic superpower and his policies are still influencing the country.

Priyanka Gandhi had accused BJP
Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra had said in X Post that by not providing adequate space for the last rites of former Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh, the government has violated the dignity of the post of former Prime Minister, the personality of Manmohan Singh, his legacy and justice to the independent Sikh community. Didn’t do it. Before this, all the former Prime Ministers were given the highest honor and respect. Dr. Manmohan Singh deserves this honor and mausoleum. Today the whole world is remembering his contribution. The government should have thought beyond politics and narrow-mindedness in this matter.
The public got upset while paying tribute
This morning I felt this after seeing the family members of Dr. Manmohan Singh struggling for a place at the funeral pyre, trying to find a place in the crowd and the general public getting troubled due to lack of space and paying homage from the road outside.
