The country's politics has heated up over Congress leader Rahul Gandhi not being able to name the 'VB Ji Ram Ji' scheme properly. Congress and BJP have come face to face on this issue and a heated war of words is going on between the two parties. Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Friday took a dig at Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi and questioned his absence during the debate and passing of the VB-G Ram Ji Bill in the House.
Shivraj Chauhan has targeted Rahul Gandhi after the Congress leader, while addressing a workers' conference organized here on the repealed Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MNREGA), said that he could not remember the name of the new law. He wondered whether his name was 'VB Gram Ji' and then asked people what his name was?
While sharing the video clip of Rahul Gandhi's program on X, Shivraj Chauhan said in a post, Rahul ji is amazingly knowledgeable. VB-Ji Ram ji was discussed for hours in both the Houses till late night. The party and the opposition had serious debates on every aspect. The country was watching, listening. But at that time the Leader of Opposition was busy traveling abroad.

He said that now Congress is pretending to fight on the Act, while the Leader of Opposition himself does not even know the name of the bill. The Union Minister said that he has heard that Rahul ji had also become a day laborer yesterday. Someone else was wearing the towel, and Kharge ji was explaining how to lift the hoe. Shivraj Chauhan sarcastically said that you are blessed Rahul ji, and blessed is your sharp intelligence! With the help of your amazing knowledge, the ultimate welfare of Congress is ensured.
