How much does BJP fear Rahul Gandhi? MK Stalin says disqualification process is death knell of democracy

CHENNAI: Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin said BJP has sounded the death knell of democracy by disqualifying Rahul Gandhi. He said in a statement that by disqualifying him from the position of MP before filing an appeal, the rights of the people's representative are being usurped.

The disqualification of @RahulGandhi as MP before he could go for an appeal is death knell for democracy.

The metamorphosis of BJP's vindictive politics into autocracy is happening at an alarming pace. If one goes by history, it is very clear what is in store for such autocrats. pic.twitter.com/oTW4PMXi6X

BJP is rapidly transforming into a total dictatorship. MK Stalin further added that the future of such dictators is mentioned clearly in history. The DMK leader alleged that the personal clout achieved by Rahul Gandhi through the Bharat Jodo Yatra scares the BJP and thus they disqualified him to prevent his re-entry to the Parliament. BJP has lost the right to utter the word democracy by disqualifying Rahul Gandhi. At present, the disqualification process has been taken in the district court judgment. Rahul Gandhi can approach the higher courts up to the Supreme Court on the matter. MK Stalin also said that the opposition parties in the country should protest on the action against Rahul.
