Congress leader and MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra launched a sharp attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) members during a heated debate on Vande Mataram in the Lok Sabha, accusing them of prioritising electoral politics over national interest. Amid repeated interruptions and uproar in the House, Gandhi said the ruling party was driven by elections, while the Congress remained committed to fighting for the country’s core values. “You are sitting here for elections, we are sitting here for the nation,” she told BJP MPs. She added that even electoral defeats would not deter the Congress from raising its voice in Parliament. “Even if we keep losing elections, we will continue to sit here and fight you,” she said.
