There's legal bar on Rahul becoming PM: Swamy

[Abingdonboy]

Like I said I'd rather Rahul becomes PM than stays behind the scenes pulling all the strings amassing wealth and having 0 accountabity. This isn't democracy. India needs to implement rules to make sure this sh!t cannot happen again. The PM should have supreme authority- there is no place in the constitution for the current situation.

Day by day I am swung to Modi for PM. If only there wasn't a massive blemish on his character and morals- he's be a show in in 2014. I guess that's karma!

+ Rahul Gandhi has 0 leadership or political experience and seems to bring misfortune to any campaign he runs. Surely you can't go from being with 0 power to the PM of one if the most important and powerful nations in earth? Is Rahul Gandhi not hilariously unqualified to become PM? The time is coming when the Gandhi name alone is going to count for jack and this name alone won't win you an election- this has already been proven. Congress needs to field capable and credible candidates and learn from MMS's example- he was backed and liked by the ever growing middle class.

People abandon all their critical thinking skills when the conclusion supports their own political/religious/whatever view. If this accusation was directed against a member of the party they support, I have no doubt that most people would laugh it off. When accusations are made against somebody they dislike, then all reasoning go for a hike.

Could not agree more.

swamy is high.

I don't know whether Rahul can legally become Prime minister or not but he is for sure not qualified for the job. No experience, No Mass rapport, and he does not know how to communicate intelligently. All these are essential to be accepted as PM but unfortunately he got none. His only qualification for the job is that He is a Gandhi!!

Anyways, if he becomes PM then rather than him driving the country someone like Failed MP CM Digvijay singh and company would be driving him.. He will only be a face..

That blemish is a media/congress/leftie creation to a large extent to keep in check a man who they knew would upset their applecart in Delhi. And that is why they have not been to prove a single damn thing against him at where it mattered most - in the courts. The entire trial of Modi is limited to some English news channel studios. There is nothing the left elite fears most than an outsider coming in to strip them off their carefully crafted power base.

In the recent Guj election, the hardline elements within the Sangh, like a section of the VHP were actually campaigning against Modi because of his clamping down on them and the funny thing is the 'secular' Congress was in tactical alliance with the VHP in an attempt to bring down Modi. And the media which shouts blue murder at VHP and Modi usually was mouth shut on this. Apparently the VHP suddenly became 'secular' overnight.

If one cannot deduce that this decade long character assasination of Modi was nothing but political opportunism from this, then I dont know what else will.

So what will you deduce about allegations like the present one against Rahul Gandhi, and the decades of such allegations by Subramanian swamy against Sonia Gandhi? Use the same reasoning.

The fact is though these clouds will continue to hang over Modi and even if these are unsubstantial lies the mud has stuck to him. If Modi were to become PM you can bet your bottom dollar that every single Western and Arab media outlet would aggressively attack not just Modi for his accused crime but attAck India as a whole. Modi as PM would seriously damage India's image.

If Modi was so innocent then why do the claims still linger? Why does Modi not sue all those who continue to make these accusations for slander? Why has Modi not been able to discard this image?

Agreed. If it were the case that Rabul become PM I would like to see the likes of Montek Singh take a leading role in national matters. The last thing India needs is a Gandhi involved in politics. Why do they not just all retire? Are their personal fortunes not great enoug yet??

The only thing I can commend the Gandhis for is bringing in MMS as PM.

Sorry to inform everybody, but this is total bull.

Anybody born on Indian soil before 1 July 1987 is a citizen of India by birth. Rahul Gandhi falls into this category. Anybody born on Indian soil between 1987 and 2004 is a citizen of India if at least one parent is an Indian citizen.

It is ludicrous to suggest (without evidence, as Swamy always does) that Rahul Gandhi has an Italian passport or that he travelled across Europe on the same. When his Indian passport carries the name of India's most powerful family, why would he need to use any other passport?

Mr Swamy should show what evidence he has for this new concoction. It should be a piece of cake to prove that somebody travelled across Europe on an Italian passport.

I am happy to inform everyone that this can be argued in court and possibly won.

Contrary to propaganda, Dr. Subramaian Swamy is reputed to make claims only when he has evidence. This is the reason NO ONE has ever won a defamation case against him. Many have tried and failed....now no one even dares to file a defamation case against him.

If Rahul Gandhi has the guts to file a defamation case against him or IF YOU as a supporter of Rahul Gandhi can file a case against Dr. Subramaian Swamy, he will provide all the necessary evidence in COURT. No need for him to satisfy every 'aire gaire

People abandon all their critical thinking skills when the conclusion supports their own political/religious/whatever view. If this accusation was directed against a member of the party they support, I have no doubt that most people would laugh it off. When accusations are made against somebody they dislike, then all reasoning go for a hike.

The same can be said to be true for you and people who support you.

The word 'Self Righteous' comes to mind.

 

[nithin]

Is Dr. Swamy an agent of Intelligence Bureau or he is running political intelligence group of his own?? If not how he has all this information about Rahul's American and european trips and and the letter that Kalam wrote to Sonia gandhi???

he is a lawyer.

The fact is though these clouds will continue to hang over Modi and even if these are unsubstantial lies the mud has stuck to him. If Modi were to become PM you can bet your bottom dollar that every single Western and Arab media outlet would aggressively attack not just Modi for his accused crime but attAck India as a whole.

There goes a saying, "If you stand and throw stones at each and every dog barking at you, then you will never reach your destination." Cases have been filed against him and the law is taking the course.

Many people at the helm during the riots have already been convicted but MODI isn't ? Doesn't it tell you something ?

The Gandhi family may now acquire Venezuela passports since Rahul’s girl friend Veronica is a Venezuelan. That means one more foreign bahu for us tolerant Indians. The Maino-Gandhis are certainly getting globalized!

10 years from now, the mantle of leadership of the Cong is going to fall on the lovely shoulders of Veronica from Venezuela! And these Cong sycophants are gonna be licking the soles of her sandals with great devotion, affection and loyalty!

Mera Bharat Mahaan!

Nah- Indians are already getting sick of the current generation of Gandhis, I can't see a future where any descendants of these pr!cks will be at all relevant or popular in Indian politics. History will remember this time as the dieing period of these self entitled,corrupt, selfish a-hole family.

So what will you deduce about allegations like the present one against Rahul Gandhi, and the decades of such allegations by Subramanian swamy against Sonia Gandhi? Use the same reasoning.

You did not see me commenting on Swamy's theory..did you ?

 

[zaxcolix]

Then you should check out some of the other things Mr Swamy has said. He has been a serial conspiracy monger for decades now, and personal attacks have been his forte.

Anyway, this particular allegation (like all of his allegations) is BS, and that is patently obvious. Neither Italy nor India allows dual citizenship, and holding both countries' passports together is a punishable offence under both countrys' laws. Anybody who aquires an Italian passport automatically loses Indian citizenship, and vice versa. He would not be eligible to be an MP either, if he is an Italian citizen, so Mr Swamy should go to court and have Rahul removed from parliament, if his allegations are true.

Dr. Subramanian Swamy (Not Mr.) has a reputation for impeccable moral integrity, astute character, fantastic Intelligence and unquestionable patriotism. He does whatever he thinks is best for India, and if that means tearing down the fake 'Gandhis' worshiped by the unfortunate Indians. He does, what he does for the 1 billion people he calls his own.

If Rahul Gandhi a.k.a Raul Vinci has accepted Italian Passport (thus pledging his allegiance to Italy) then there is a very strong case against him for being PM. If he has utilised that passport to travel then the case against him just gets stronger.

Rahul Gandhi should GO TO COURT and file DEFAMATION case against Dr. Swamy and send Dr. Swamy to Jail. I guess he is too 'noble' to do that.

He won't take this to court, because he knows it won't hold water there. He has not taken any of his previous allegations to court either. If he had even a shred of evidence for this, he would have taken it to court, instead of to the media. The courts can't decide on something that don't come to them. So his supporters will all wait for it to happen, until he comes up with a new conspiracy theory. This has been his modus operandi for decades. In the 80s, he used to accuse Sonia Gandhi of being a KGB agent. In the 90s, he used to accuse her of being a CIA agent. In the 80s, he has accused her of conspiring to kill Indira Gandhi by deliberately delaying medical attention. In the 90s, he accused her of conspiring with the LTTE to murder her husband. And these are just some of his saner accusations.

You can wait all you want, but I assure you, he won't take this issue to court either. In a few months, he will come up with a new conspiracy theory, and then that will be the talk of the town.

Dr. Subramaian Swamy will take it to court when there is a chance of Rahul Gandhi becoming PM. There is no need for him to defuse this bomb before its time. That would be very stupid and one thing Dr. Swamy is not, is stupid.

I wonder why the incredibly powerful Sonia Gandhi never took Dr. Subramanian Swamy to court to for making these 'allegation'. Makes you wonder, No ? or has critical reasoning gone for a hike?

Yes they are unsubstantiated lies.

If Modi were to become PM you can bet your bottom dollar that every single Western and Arab media outlet would aggressively attack not just Modi for his accused crime but attAck India as a whole. Modi as PM would seriously damage India's image.

On the contrary people would be lining up to do business. Money talks, bullshit walks.

UK's most senior diplomat in India meets Narendra Modi, ending 10-year boycott | NDTV.com

This is when he is just the Chief Minister. And Modi has already a very good image of him in China, the next big thing and in Japan.

China goes gaga over Narendra Modi

On Japan tour, Modi is seen as India’s rising sun

And do you think I or any self respecting Indian would give a **** to what those media houses run by the tin pot medieval arab dictatorships say on Modi ?

C'mon man..where is your self respect ? Why do you need a western or arab (of all) approval ?

If Modi was so innocent then why do the claims still linger?

Goebbels of "say a lie thousand times and it will become the truth" would be proud to hear this. And going by the same logic, the claims of Sonia and Rahul being italian citizens are also lingering, perhaps for even longer time. So what to make of that ?

Why does Modi not sue all those who continue to make these accusations for slander? Why has Modi not been able to discard this image?

Because have you heard the proverb "kutte baunke hazaar, haathi chale bazaar" ? Modi is not mandated to reply or prove his innocence in those kangaroo courts run in media studios. In India you are innocent until proven guilt (in a court of law). It is upto the accusers to put their money where their mouth is and prove his 'alleged' crime in a court of law. Else they should shut up.
