Congress MP Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday said that he will have to be "beheaded" before going to RSS office and that his ideology does not match with his cousin and Pilibhit MP Varun Gandhi.
He made the remark in a press conference in Punjab's Hoshiarpur where he is leading the Bharat Jodo Yatra. Rahul Gandhi was speaking about the ideological difference between him and his cousin, Varun Gandhi.
"Varun Gandhi is in BJP if he walks here then it might be a problem for him. My ideology doesn't match his ideology. I cannot go to RSS office, I'll have to be beheaded before that. My family has an ideology. Varun adopted another and I can't accept that ideology," he said.
Speaking to the reporters, the Congress MP accused the BJP and RSS of capturing all institutions in the country and claimed there is "pressure" on the media, Election Commission and the judiciary.
He also took a jibe at the Aam Punjab's Aadmi Party government and asserted that Punjab should be run from Punjab only, not from Delhi.

"Today all the institutions of the country are controlled by the RSS and the BJP. There is a pressure on all institutions. Press is under pressure, bureaucracy is under pressure, the Election Commission is under pressure, they put pressure on the judiciary,” he charged.
“This is not a fight between one political party and another political party. It is now a fight between the institutions of the country, which were captured by them, and the opposition,” he said.
