A day after Congress leader Digvijaya Singh thanked Germany for taking note of Rahul Gandhi’s disqualification from Lok Sabha, Rajya Sabha MP Kapil Sibal on Friday said that “we don’t need endorsements from abroad” as “our fight is our own”.
Disagreeing with Singh, Sibal, who quit the Congress last year, also asserted that “we don’t need crutches to walk ahead”.
Singh had thanked the German foreign ministry and Richard Walker, Chief International Editor of Deutsche Welle for “taking note of how Democracy is being compromised in India through the persecution of Rahul Gandhi”. He also tagged a tweet and a video posted by Walker on the German foreign ministry reaction to Gandhi’s disqualification.
