Attending the birth anniversary of BSP founder Kanshi Ram, Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi spoke about India’s energy security and raised concerns over alleged links in the oil sector. He said that during Parliament, he mentioned “Epstein,” but the Speaker immediately interjected. Gandhi highlighted that gas cylinders were unavailable and India’s energy security has been compromised. He added that while America allows purchases of gas and oil from Russia, similar options from Iran, Iraq, or elsewhere are restricted. Gandhi also pointed to the man appointed as Oil Minister, claiming his name appears in the “Epstein Files” and alleged that funds from George Soros flowed into the minister’s daughter’s company.#rahulgandhi #hardeeppuri #pmmodi #energysecurity #epsteinfiles #indiapolitics
