Congress, the initiators of politics of relief, received a lot of flak after pictures of a flag off of their relief supplies hit the media and social media websites.
The initiator of politics of relief and congress spokesperson Manish Tewari, hit out at Modi's visit to flood-affected areas saying, 'Now, in all this, if somebody wants to become a Rambo and claims he alone, in a span of two days during a trip of disaster tourism, brought out 15,000 people, I am afraid, for the lack of a better word, it just reflects rank opportunism and sheer desperation to try and politicize and even milk a tragedy for political reasons.' And from here on the politics of relief started! Amid criticism over the response of the Congress government in Uttarakhand to the devastation in the state, party president Sonia Gandhi, after the arrival of her son - party vice-president Rahul Gandhi, on Monday flagged off relief supplies from the national capital. Rahul Gandhi flew into Uttarakhand on Monday despite Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde issuing instruction that 'VVIPs flying into the state can disturb rescue operations.' On the very next day when Rahul flew into Uttarakhand, Shinde said that 'aerial surveys of the state are not problematic!' The initiator of Politrick and congress spokesperson Renuka Choudhary said, "Rahul Gandhi is not going there as a VVIP. HE IS GOING THERE AS A CITIZEN, AS THE VICE-PRESIDENT OF CONGRESS TO OVERSEE THAT THE RELIEF MATERIALS REACH IN PLACE. Rahul did not say 'I am a Rambo and I did this and I did that'." Renuka Choudhary continued her argument saying, '"You do not know what he (Rahul) is doing. What do you want? We should be telling you when does he have his HAIR CUT and such things? Everybody is not like that to publicize all petty things." (http://www.ndtv.com/article/india/rahul-gandhi-is-in-uttarakhand-as-a-citiz en-not-rambo-says-congress-383868) Renuka Choudhary's cover-up clearly suggest: 1) In matters of overseeing whether relief materials reach the place or not congress party trust no other person than Rahul Gandhi! 2) Only CITIZEN (with Z plus security!) and only vice-president of congress party, not any other VVIP's, can fly into the area even if it causes disturbance in rescue operations! Now Indians will have to wait and watch as to whom congress party trust in matters of actual distribution of relief material!! Jai Bharat Nirman!!!!
