BJP slams Rahul Gandhi for repeatedly insulting Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

The BJP slammed Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for his remarks targeting Bollywood actor Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Accusing Rahul Gandhi of stooping to a “new low” by demeaning Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, the BJP claimed the 53-year-old has a “dangerous and creepy obsession with successful and self-made women”. The controversy originated from Rahul Gandhi’s recent remarks during the ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra’ in Uttar Pradesh. Rahul Gandhi took a swipe at the BJP, specifically criticising the ‘Pran Pratishtha’ event held at the Ram Temple in Ayodhya last month. The Congress leader claimed the grand consecration ceremony, attended by a host of Bollywood celebrities and billionaires, was not attended by anyone from the OBC, Dalit or tribal communities, who comprise 73 per cent of the country’s population. While the inauguration ceremony was attended by Amitabh Bachchan and his son Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan did not accompany them to Ayodhya nor was she present at the event. @@@@
