Hyderabad: Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) President Capt. N. Uttam Kumar Reddy has strongly condemned the attack on the car of Congress Vice-President Rahul Gandhi in Banaskanta region of Gujarat allegedly by the BJP activists.

Rahul Gandhi, who was on a day long visit to flood-hit regions of Gujarat, was to address a rally in Lal Chowk of Banaskanta today. However, the BJP activists allegedly attacked his car and pelted stones. "Attack on Rahul Gandhi's car is an act of cowardice and shame," said Uttam Kumar Reddy in a media statement on Friday. He said that the attack has exposed lawlessness in BJP-ruled Gujarat. He said the attack on the Vice-President of a national party in the home state of Prime Minister Narendra Modi is a matter of serious concern. He said that the attack not only exposed security and intelligence failure, but also the rising inclination of BJP activists towards violence.

"BJP goons are bringing disrepute to Bapu's Gujarat which is an icon of peace all across the world. BJP will fail in its attempts to intimidate Rahul Gandhi, Congress party and the people of Gujarat using violent means," said Uttam Kumar Reddy while adding that the Congress party follows the ideals of Mahatma Gandhi of non-violence and peace. He demanded that the Prime Minister himself should apologise to the people of the country for attack on Rahul Gandhi's car in Gujarat.

Uttam Kumar Reddy said people of Gujarat would restore "Bapu's Gujarat" which is a symbol of peace and reject "Modi's Gujarat" which signifies violence.
