NEW DELHI: Former Union education minister and senior BJP<\/a> leader Dharmendra Pradhan<\/a> on Tuesday trained his guns on Lok Sabha leader of opposition Rahul Gandhi<\/a>, branding him a \u201chabitual liar\u201d and accusing the Congress of shedding \u201ccrocodile tears\u201d over students\u2019 concerns.Pradhan\u2019s remarks came amid protests in Jharkhand over irregularities and paper leaks in competitive examinations. In Jharkhand, Congress is part of the ruling alliance with Jharkhand Mukti Morcha led by chief minister Hemant Soren in the state.In a post on X, former Union education minister accused the Congress of \u201ccontinuously spreading lies\u201d about students\u2019 interests and alleged that Rahul Gandhi \u201clacks facts\u201d.\u201cThe leader of opposition, who habitually lies, neither wants to come to Parliament nor listen to answers. They just want to spread their lies and shed crocodile tears,\u201d Pradhan said.Pradhan also hit back at the opposition\u2019s sustained attack on the Centre and Union home minister Amit Shah, accusing Rahul Gandhi and the Congress of making \u201cbaseless\u201d and \u201cfactless\u201d allegations.\u201cMaking baseless, factless false accusations against the Honorable Home Minister Shri Amit Shah ji reveals the political desperation of Rahul Gandhi and the Congress,\u201d Sambalpur MP said.The former Union minister also maintained that the government was ready for a discussion in Parliament on \u201cevery issue\u201d, while accusing the Congress of deliberately disrupting proceedings.\u201cThe government is ready for discussion in Parliament on every issue, but Congress is obstructing the temple of democracy, Parliament House, and crushing the interests of the country and the youth,\u201d he said.Pradhan alleged that the opposition\u2019s objective was political, rather than addressing issues concerning the country and young people. He also accused Congress leaders of creating \u201cchaos\u201d outside Parliament when discussions are held inside the House.Turning the spotlight on the JMM-Congress government in Jharkhand, Pradhan accused it of following a policy of \u201cselective democracy\u201d over the handling of student protests.<\/p>\n
