Afridi praised Rahul fiercely
Afridi criticized the BJP government in India during a discussion on a Pakistani news channel and praised Gandhi. Afridi’s statement came at a time when the Indian cricket team decided not to join hands with the players of their arch -rivals Pakistani team during the Asia Cup match in Dubai on Sunday (14 September), which has created a ruckus in Pakistan.
Afridi praised Rahul and everywhere against India. He said, “The Modi government plays a Hindu-Muslim card, keeps a very dirty type of mindset to bring itself to power, but if you talk about Rahul, he is a very positive mind set man. He wants to walk with the world through dialogues, isn’t an Israel enough that you (India) are trying to make another? ”
This decision was seen as an expression of solidarity with the victims of Pahalgam terrorist attack. After the Pahalgam terror attack, India launched an accurate attack on terrorist sites in Pakistan, resulting in military conflict between the two countries.
What did Rijiju say after Afridi’s statement
BJP leaders used Afridi’s remarks to target Rahul Gandhi. Union Minister Kiren Rijiju said, “Rahul Gandhi has been dear to Pakistan. Shahid Afridi and the people of Pakistan can make Rahul Gandhi their leader. ”
The Congress and its allies are targeting the BJP for India’s decision to play matches with Pakistan in the Asia Cup. Afridi has a history of controversial statements against India. Citing Afridi’s comments, BJP leaders intensified their attack on the Congress.
Amit Malviya, the head of BJP’s IT department, said, “Hardcore Hindu-foreign Shahid Afridi, who does not leave any opportunity to dreamed of spewing poison against India and joining Kashmir in Pakistan, suddenly has started praising Rahul Gandhi.”
