New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, on Friday, held a virtual meeting with the party's social media volunteers, where he made it very clear that Congress only needs those people who can portray the party's ideology fearlessly.
Gandhi attacked those leaders who left Congress party to join the ruling BJP. While addressing the volunteers, the Congress leader said, "There are many fearless people, who are not in Congress. They should be brought in and the Congressmen who are afraid (of BJP) should be shown the exit door."

He further asserted, "We do not need those who believe in RSS ideology. We need fearless people. This is our ideology." Gandhi said to the party's social media team that they do not need to get scared from the "fake news" of BJP.
"When Narendra Modi Ji said that UP has done good work in the management of Covid-19, people laughed at him. When he said that China has not intruded into our territory, people laughed at him. Everybody knows. So, you defend the truth," the Wayanad MP said.
