The selective outrage is impossible to miss. Rahul Gandhi, who today speaks the language of protest and democratic rights, had a very different view in 2011 during Anna Hazare’s anti-corruption movement. In Parliament, he warned: “A process divorced from the machinery of an elected government that seeks to undo the checks and balances created to protect the supremacy of Parliament and this House sets a dangerous precedent for our democracy… Today, the proposed law is against corruption. Tomorrow, it may be directed toward something that is far less universally heralded. It may attack the plurality of our society and our democracy.” Back then, Rahul Gandhi effectively portrayed a mass protest as a threat to democracy. Today, he invokes democracy to defend another protest. Which Rahul Gandhi should India believe? And while the Congress lectures others on compassion, let us not forget the midnight police crackdown on Baba Ramdev’s peaceful protest at Delhi’s Ramlila Maidan in June 2011 under the UPA government. Tear gas, lathicharge and force were used against sleeping protesters. Rajbala, a 51-year-old woman participating in the protest, suffered catastrophic spinal injuries that left her paralysed. After months of battling for her life, she succumbed to those injuries. Contrast that with the present case. Sonam Wangchuk was shifted to a hospital following directions of the High Court to safeguard his health during an indefinite fast. There was no midnight lathicharge, no violent dispersal, and no attempt to crush dissent through brute force. If Rahul Gandhi wishes to invoke the values of truth and non-violence, he must first explain the Congress party’s own record instead of indulging in political amnesia.
