'Limited To Being A Troll': Scindia Hits Back At Rahul Gandhi For Linking Him With Adani Row

"It is clear that you are now limited to being a troll," Scindia said.

After Rahul Gandhi linked Scindia to the Adani controversy, Union minister Jyotiraditya Scindia on Monday called him a "troll" and demanded that he respond to three questions instead of making "unfounded" accusations and deflecting attention away from the real problems, news agency PTI reported. "It is clear that you are now limited to being a troll," Scindia, a former Gandhi confidant, said in response to the Congress leader's barb on Saturday on those who had left his party in recent years as he continued his onslaught against the government over the Adani issue.

"They hide the truth, that's why they mislead everyday! The question remains the same - whose Rs 20,000 crore benami money is in Adani's companies?" Gandhi tweeted in Hindi, attaching a photograph with the names of the leaders, including Adani's.

In his tweet, he included the names Ghulam Nabi Azad, Scindia, Himanta Biswa Sarma, Kiran Kumar Reddy, and Anil K Antony.

Scindia said, "Why does Gandhi not apologise for his "derogatory" remarks regarding the backward classes? Instead, he claims that he is not Veer Savarkar and refuses to apologise."

"Insult of a patriot and so much arrogance," the BJP leader was quoted by PTI in its report.

"The Congress has always pointed fingers at courts and why are you now putting pressure on them for your selfish interests," he asked.

"Why should the rules be different for you? Do you consider yourself a first class citizen? You are so consumed by arrogance that appreciating even the importance of these questions is beyond your understanding," Scindia said, targeting Gandhi.

Other leaders included in Gandhi's tweet have also criticised him, with Sarma threatening to sue the Congress leader for defamation.
