“Best gift….”: Sachin Pilot after Congress organises job fair on Rahul Gandhi’s birthday

New Delhi [India], June 19 (ANI): Congress leader Sachin Pilot said that large-scale job fair organised by the party on Thursday to commemorate Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi’s 55th birthday was the “best gift” the party could give to its leader.
Speaking to ANI about the job fair, Congress leader Sachin Pilot said, “Today the Congress party has provided a platform where thousands of youth have got the opportunity to get employment… The central government and the ruling party should learn a lesson from this. Will they do only politics or will they do something for the people of the country as well? … We cannot give a better gift than this to Rahul Gandhi.”
Congress MP Rahul Gandhi arrived at the All India Congress Committee (AICC) Headquarters at 24 Akbar Road in Delhi on Thursday, as he celebrated his 55th birthday.
Party workers gathered in large numbers to extend their best wishes to the Congress leader, creating a festive atmosphere at the AICC premises. Congress supporters distributed sweets and celebrated the occasion.
Many extended birthday greetings to Rahul Gandhi, Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, on his 55th birthday, commending his unwavering commitment to constitutional values, social justice, and the upliftment of marginalised communities.
The Congress party also honoured Rahul Gandhi’s leadership on social media, calling him a “true crusader for justice”.
Meanwhile, while speaking to mediapersons here today, Sachin Pilot responded to US President Donald Trump’s statement.
“The US President is consistently and continuously saying that he brokered the ceasefire by either showing the threat or allurement for a trade deal…MEA Spokesperson have denied that, but from the highest levels that statement should be contradicted, if it is untrue…By hosting the Pakistani Army Chief at the White House, it is a clear indication of how the US government sees the Indo-Pak situation…The Indian government must attain more global alliances to take on this posturing that the US government is showing…We will never accept any mediation on Kashmir…We are calling for a special session of the Parliament to send a message that PoK is ours,” said Pilot.
Congress MP Gurjeet Singh Aujla also reacted on the same and told ANI, “There has not been a single statement from the Prime Minister on this. General Asim, who has a role in promoting terrorism, is having lunch with Trump. Trump is saying that he is our good friend. Our foreign policy has completely failed. This government, the Prime Minister should pay attention to this.”
This comes after US President Donald Trump on Wednesday (local time) hosted Pakistan Army Chief Asim Munir at the White House for a lunch meeting, praising Munir for his role in preventing the escalation of the conflict between India and Pakistan.
Trump said, “The reason I had him here was I wanted to thank him for not going into the war and ending it…”
Earlier, Congress MP Jairam Ramesh also raised concerns and said that it was a huge blow to Indian diplomacy.
In a post on X, Jairam said that Munir is the same man whose inflammatory remarks formed the backdrop to the brutal Pahalgam attack on April 22.
“Field Marshall Asim Munir is NOT the Head of State or Head of Government of Pakistan. He is the Chief of Army Staff. Yet he gets invited by President Trump for lunch and receives much praise. This is the same man whose atrocious and inflammatory remarks formed the immediate backdrop to the brutal Pahalgam terror attacks orchestrated by the establishment over which he presides,” he said.
“It is a huge blow to Indian diplomacy (and huglomacy too),” Jairam added. (ANI)
