Pegasus row: Rahul demands Shah’s resignation, SC probe against Modi
23 July 2021, 4:40 pmUpping the ante against the government, former Congress Chief Rahul Gandhi on Friday described Pegasus as a weapon and demanded resignation of Union Home Minister Amit Shah.
Addressing the media outside Parliament, Rahul Gandhi said, “Pegasus is classified by the Israeli State as a weapon and that weapon is supposed to be used against the terrorist. The Prime Minister (Narendra Modi) and Union Home Minister have used this weapon against the Indian State and against our institutions.”
He alleged that the government used it politically. “They have used it in Karnataka, they have used it to scuttle probes, they have used it against the Supreme Court and against all the institutions of this country,” he alleged.
Targeting the government, Rahul Gandhi said, “The only word for this is treason. There is no other word for this.”
