Rahul Gandhi reminded everyone in the meeting that as the head of the DISHA group, all talks had to go through him. He stressed how important it was to follow the rules so that planning and coordination could work well in the district. People took what he said as a straight claim that he was in charge of Rae Bareli.
Minister’s Sharp Answer
Dinesh Pratap Singh, who works for the BJP-led state government in Uttar Pradesh, did not like what Rahul said. Singh sharply replied to Rahul Gandhi, “If you don’t listen to the Speaker in Lok Sabha, why should I have to follow your orders here?” The sudden response made things worse in the room right away and surprised other officials and guests.
Political undertones and a rise in conflict
It’s not new for Rahul Gandhi and Dinesh Pratap Singh to argue with each other in Rae Bareli politics. Singh used to be a Congress member and is now a minister for the BJP. He has often fought against Rahul Gandhi and the Gandhi family in the area. This new fight has once again shown how much the two leaders dislike each other and how their political differences affect each other.
What Netizens Say: “Jaise Ko Taisa”
A lot of people quickly shared clips and stories about the heated argument on social media, which went viral. Netizens had strong reactions. Many said it was a time of “Jaise Ko Taisa,” which was a great response to what Rahul Gandhi said. People from both parties joined the online argument. Congress fans defended Rahul’s power as chairman, while BJP supporters praised Singh’s quick return.
Rahul’s trip to Uttar Pradesh
Rahul Gandhi was supposed to talk about progress during his trip to Rae Bareli, but his fight with Dinesh Pratap Singh has turned the conversation back to politics. Since Rae Bareli is a stronghold for the Congress party and Rahul Gandhi’s new Lok Sabha seat, the political drama here is likely to get worse over the next few months. This is especially true as both the Congress and the BJP try to improve their positions in Uttar Pradesh before the 2027 assembly elections.
