Union Home Minister Amit Shah took a swipe at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his reported foreign visit, saying the Congress would not return to power for the next 30 years. Shah’s remarks came amid a political row over Gandhi’s reported trip abroad while opposition parties were protesting against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over alleged irregularities in the voter list revision exercise. The BJP has criticised Gandhi’s absence, while Congress leaders have defended his right to travel. The dispute has added to tensions between the BJP and Congress over political protests and electoral issues. (PC: India Today)
