Digvijaya Singh's Brother Laxman Expelled From Congress After Remarks On Rahul Gandhi
Last Updated: Digvijaya Singh's brother Laxman Singh had said that Rahul Gandhi and Robert Vadra should mind words before making public statements about Pahalgam terror attack. Days after Congress leader Laxman Singh made remarks on Rahul Gandhi and Robert Vadra, party president Mallikarjun Kharge on Wednesday expelled him for six years, citing 'anti-party activities". The party's move comes weeks after Singh dubbed Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi's husband, Robert Vadra, 'naive", claiming that the country is 'suffering the consequences of their immaturity". Announcing his expulsion from the party, Congress said, 'Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge has expelled Laxman Singh, Former MLA, Madhya Pradesh, from the primary membership of the party for a period of six years due to his anti-party activities". Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge has expelled Laxman Singh, Former MLA, Madhya Pradesh, from the primary membership of the party for a period of six years due to his anti-party activities. — ANI (@ANI) June 11, 2025 What Had Laxman Singh Said About Rahul Gandhi, Robert Vadra? Days after the Pahalgam terror attack on April 22, in which 26 civilians were killed, the Congress leader had lashed out at the remarks by Robert Vadra — who said that the terrorists gave a message to Prime Minister Narendra Modi that 'Muslims are feeling weakened" in India — stating that the businessman's statement 'poses a threat to the security of the country". 'Robert Vadra's statement that the terrorists attacked because they did not allow Muslims to offer namaz on the road is not only irresponsible but also a statement that poses a threat to the security of the country. I am saying all this in front of the camera, so that no one is confused. Congress should think 10 times before speaking, otherwise the public will answer in the elections," he had said.
