Serving a Fresh Set of Lies, Starring PM Rahul Gandhi and Shot-Down Rafales Brig (retd) GB Reddi Telangana Chief Minister A.

And had the Congress party not been dethroned by the people’s mandate in 2014, India might well have sleepwalked into becoming an undeclared Islamic state—culturally, demographically, and legally.
