Leader of Opposition Shri Rahul Gandhi’s tweet on January 9, 2026:

The ‘corrupt’ double-engine governments of the BJP across the country have ruined the lives of the people. Corruption, abuse of power, and the poison of arrogance have permeated the BJP’s politics from top to bottom. In their system, the lives of the poor, the helpless, the laborers, and the middle class are merely statistics, and a system of extortion is being run in the name of ‘development’.

The brutal murder of Ankita Bhandari in Uttarakhand has shaken the entire country, but the question remains: which BJP VIP is being protected by those in power? When will the law be equal for everyone?

In the Unnao case in Uttar Pradesh, the entire country witnessed how criminals were protected due to their connections to those in power, and the heavy price the victim had to pay for justice.

From deaths caused by drinking contaminated water in Indore to complaints of ‘black water’ and polluted supply in Gujarat, Haryana, and Delhi – the fear of disease is rampant everywhere.

Whether it’s the Aravalli hills of Rajasthan or other natural resources, wherever the greed and self-interest of billionaires have reached, rules have been trampled upon. Mountains are being cut down, forests are being destroyed, and the public is getting nothing in return but dust, pollution, and disaster.

Children dying from cough syrup, rats killing newborns in government hospitals, collapsing roofs in government schools – this is not mere ‘negligence’, but a direct consequence of corruption.

Bridges collapse, roads cave in, families are wiped out in train accidents, and the BJP government does the same thing every time: photo opportunities, tweets, and the formality of compensation.

Modi’s ‘double engine’ is running – but only for the billionaires. For the average Indian, this double-engine government of corruption is not bringing development, but rather a pace of destruction – crushing someone’s life every single day.
