'Where was Rahul Gandhi during Delhi blast?' asks Bihar BJP State President Dilip Jaiswal

Bihar BJP President demands answers from Rahul Gandhi about his whereabouts during Delhi terror attack and questions his stance on terrorism amid Bihar election results.

"I want to ask Rahul Gandhi where he was when this incident took place? I got to know he went out of India along with Priyanka Gandhi as well... - Dilip Jaiswal"

Patna, November 12

Bihar BJP State President Dilip Jaiswal on Wednesday launched a sharp attack on Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, questioning his whereabouts during the recent Delhi blast and criticising him for not speaking openly against terrorism.

"I want to ask Rahul Gandhi where he was when this incident took place? I got to know he went out of India along with Priyanka Gandhi as well... Also, why doesn't he speak openly against terrorism?" Jaiswal said while speaking to ANI.

He further slammed the Congress leader, speculating whether he has any connections with individuals attempting to harm national security.

"He comes to gather and ask for votes but disappears during a terror attack on the nation... He raises questions on the army and the security agencies, does he have any relations with those who want to destroy the country?... Either he must stay with the nation or against it," he added.

The blast, which occurred around 7 pm on Monday near the Subhash Marg traffic signal close to the Red Fort in Delhi, involved a slow-moving Hyundai i20 car that exploded, causing damage to nearby vehicles, according to Union Home Minister Amit Shah.

Jaiswal also commented on the Bihar Elections Exit Polls, asserting that people do not want the return of "Jungle Raj" in the state and continue to place their faith in the National Democratic Alliance (NDA).

"People have faith in the NDA government, and this is also due to PM Modi's special package for Bihar and his vision of Viksit Bihar... People don't want Jungle Raaj back in Bihar," he said.

Earlier on Tuesday, the exit polls predicted that the ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is poised to form the government again in Bihar. They predicted that the opposition Mahagathbandhan would fall short of the majority mark in the 243-member state assembly.

The exit polls came out after the conclusion of voting in Bihar. While the first phase of polling was held on November 6, the second phase concluded on November 11. The state has seen record polling in the assembly polls.

Counting of votes will take place on November 14.

Why should Rahul Gandhi prove his patriotism? He has always stood for the nation. BJP should focus on security issues rather than personal attacks.

Valid questions by Jaiswal ji. Leaders should be accountable to the people, especially during national crises. Where was the opposition leadership when the country needed solidarity?

As someone living in Delhi, I'm more concerned about the actual security measures than political blame games. Let's focus on preventing such incidents rather than scoring political points.

The timing of these comments around election results is clearly political. Let's wait for the actual counting rather than exit poll predictions. Democracy should speak through votes, not polls.

Terrorism has no religion or political affiliation. All parties must work together to ensure national security. Baseless allegations don't help anyone except the enemies of our nation.
