Gandhi family has not given respect to any big leader of the country: Nadda

Accusing Congress of trying to politicise the demise of former Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh, BJP National President and Union Health Minister JP Nadda on Saturday alleged that the grand old party never showed respect to the former prime minister when he held the office.
The article discusses remarks made by BJP president J.P. Nadda, who criticized the Gandhi family for not showing respect to significant leaders of India. Nadda specifically mentioned that the Gandhi family has not honored leaders like Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Subhas Chandra Bose, and B.R. Ambedkar, among others. He highlighted that while the BJP has recognized these figures by building memorials and celebrating their contributions, the Congress party, under the influence of the Gandhi family, has failed to do so. Nadda's comments were part of a broader critique of the Congress party's historical recognition of national leaders, suggesting a lack of respect and acknowledgment from the Gandhi family towards these key figures in India's history.
