Responding to Digvijaya’s Pulwama tweet, VK Singh asks whether Rajiv Gandhi’s assassination was an ‘accident’
General VK Singh.
In a recent tweet, senior Congress leader Digvijaya Singh referred the Pulwama terror attack, in which a suicide bomber killed over 40 CRPF personnel, as an “accident”. Responding to this, minister of state for external affairs General Vijay Kumar Singh, on Tuesday, asked the Congress leader if he would also term the assassination of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi as an “accident”.
Rajiv Gandhi was assassinated by an LTTE suicide bomber in May 1991. The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam was a terrorist organization operating from Sri Lanka.
VK Singh tweeted: “With due respect, I would like to ask Digvijaya Singh Ji, was Rajiv Gandhi’s assassination an accident or a terror incident.”
Calling a terrorist attack an ‘accident’ should NOT be the political discourse in our country. @digvijaya_28 ji, would you call Rajiv Gandhi’s assassination an accident?
