Himanta Biswa Sarma mocks Rahul Gandhi for his demand to lose weight

Assam: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma took a dig at Rahul Gandhi, alleging that the Congress leader’s demand for a party worker to lose weight to meet him reflects the actions of the “dynasty that rules North Korea”.
Sarma reacted sharply to the comments of former Mumbai Youth Congress president Zeeshan Siddiqui and compared authoritarian rule and criticized the “ridiculous demands” imposed on party workers to look aesthetically pleasing.

After being removed from the post of Mumbai Youth Congress chief, Zeeshan Siddiqui made sharp remarks on the Congress party in a press conference. Expressing disillusionment, Siddiqui hinted at a break with the Congress, citing his admiration of Ajit Pawar’s non-communal leadership within the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP).
During the press conference, Siddiqui recounted a disturbing incident during the Bharat Jodo Yatra, where she alleged that she was subjected to body shaming by a close aide of Rahul Gandhi. He revealed, “First lose 10 kilos, then I will arrange a meeting with Rahul ji.” Siddiqui condemned this behavior and questioned the appropriateness of such comments given his position within the party hierarchy.

Siddiqui’s comments criticizing the internal workings of the Congress party and its leadership sparked a heated debate on social media. Referring to Rahul Gandhi, Siddiqui alleged that the party leadership was ignoring senior people and making unreasonable demands from its members.

Siddiqui expressed his dissatisfaction with the party’s direction and behavior towards minority communities, saying, “Rahul Gandhi’s team is destroying the party. They are very rude.”
