In a blistering attack, BJP parliamentarian Kangana Ranaut has called out Rahul Gandhi for his remarks on the Jeffrey Epstein files, branding him as possessing a ‘corrupt mentality.’ The Congress leader’s comments in Parliament linked the unsealed U.S. documents to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, igniting a fresh row in Indian politics.
Speaking candidly, Ranaut questioned Gandhi’s language: ‘His vocabulary is appalling—referring to Epstein files as having ‘maal’ and ‘kebab’ left in them. What more can one expect from such a degenerate mind?’ Her words have resonated strongly with BJP supporters.
Gandhi’s statement emphasized that key details from the Epstein case remain undisclosed, asserting that the public deserves full access. This comes amid the release of over three million pages of investigative material by U.S. authorities, including extensive video and photo evidence.
Epstein, a disgraced financier, faced federal charges for operating a sex-trafficking ring involving underage girls. His mysterious death in custody fueled conspiracy theories worldwide.
The MEA stepped in to clarify an email referencing Modi’s Israel trip, terming it baseless ramblings from a criminal source. ‘Beyond the PM’s official visit, the rest is utter rubbish,’ Jaiswal stated.
This clash exemplifies the high-stakes verbal sparring defining current political discourse. Ranaut, known for her unfiltered opinions, has positioned herself as a vocal defender of the government, while Gandhi continues to probe alleged cover-ups. Analysts predict this could escalate, influencing voter sentiments in crucial states.
As the dust settles, the episode serves as a reminder of how global controversies intersect with Indian politics, amplifying calls for accountability on all fronts.
