Lauding Rahul Gandhi, Congress MP Shashi Tharoor said Leader of Opposition’s speech in Parliament was a strong attack on the BJP government's ideology of Hindutva. According to Tharoor, his speech had a significant impact on other parliamentarians and was seen as a strong debut performance as the Leader of the Opposition (LoP). Clarifying on Gandhi’s ‘angry Hindu’ remark which sparked furore, Tharoor said, “the BJP's objections to his statement are unfounded, as he clearly distinguished between the party and the broader Hindu community.”
Speaking to ANI, Congress MP Shashi Tharoor said "What Rahul Gandhi did was a very effective attack on the underpinnings of the BJP government and their ideology of Hindutva. This is something which Rahul Gandhi has been doing politically for some time but doing it in Parliament as LoP had a tremendous impact on other Parliamentarians. There's no question that it was a tremendous debut performance by the LoP. When you look at the statement that the BJP is objecting to it was very clear in context what he was saying...He said very clearly pointing to the people on the other side, the BJP and RSS that some who call themselves Hindus are going around spreading hatred and intolerance across the country and even violence across the country. He did not say that all Hindus are doing this. Even in the course of the speech when the PM stood up, he immediately said no the BJP does not represent all Hindus and the RSS does not represent all Hindus..."
