Congress of freedom fighters stood for sacrifice

Neither noble nor majestic sounding noble and majestic but being neither defines the present day Congress Party. Congress of freedom fighters stood for sacrifice. Contrary to this, the present day Congress is a party of looters. The worst part of it is that it welcomes other looters, who were afraid of getting caught and punished for their crimes. It prides in such alliances, bilateral or multilateral. It openly encourages them to indulge in daylight robberies of national assets and justifies it too. It openly threatens law enforcement agencies of putting them in jail if elected to rule India once again in the 2024 elections to the Lok Sabha. It gets support, encouragement and ammunition to destroy India promising to overturn all the good work done in the last 10 years by non-stop assiduous work of a team of sons and daughters of Bharat, who owe allegiance to none other than Bharat. The children of Bharat belong to Bharat only and not some foreign country or ruler. The low standards of language of these looters and their alliance suffer from the limitations of a single language proficiency in English. They are ignorant of Sanskrit and its rich intellectual literature. The limitation of these looters, who prefer to call themselves only Indian, that too proudly giving an impression they are somehow superior to the rest of Bharat, act funny by presenting themselves as nobles or royals without being either is self-evident. They are to be pitied for their option to remain cut off from the Great Bharat.
