Rahul Gandhi, during the inauguration of Congress's new headquarters in Delhi, accused RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat of treason over his comments questioning India’s 1947 Independence. Bhagwat had stated that true Independence was achieved with the Ram Temple consecration in Ayodhya. Gandhi called this statement an insult to every Indian, claiming it undermines the freedom movement and the Constitution. He criticized the RSS for wanting a centralized, exclusionary vision of India, contrasting it with Congress’s inclusive approach that embraces equality and diversity. Gandhi also attacked the current government's agenda of silencing marginalized voices.
