"Pointless to comment on leader who badmouths country": Uttarakhand CM Dhami on Rahul Gandhi's remarks in US

Dehradun (Uttarakhand) [India], April 21 (ANI): Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on Monday slammed Congress MP Rahul Gandhi over his remarks in the US and said that when a leader sees no future for himself, he resorts to making such statements.
Speaking to ANI, Dhami said that it is "pointless to comment" on any leader who goes abroad and badmouths the country.
"The public continues to teach such leaders a lesson. When a leader sees no future for himself, he resorts to making such hollow statements at overseas. The Congress party was founded by a British national, and it will be brought to an end by Rahul Gandhi," the Uttarakhand CM said.
Rahul Gandhi had addressed the Indian diaspora in Boston, United States, where he alleged that the Election Commission (EC) in India was "compromised", stating that there was something fundamentally wrong with the system.

Citing the example of the Maharashtra elections, the senior Congress leader stated that there was an addition of 65 lakh voters to the voter list in two hours, which was impossible.
"More people voted in Maharashtra than the total number of people in Maharashtra, and this is a fact... the Election Commission gave us a figure in the evening around 5:30 p.m., and in two hours around 7:30 p.m., 65 lakh voters had voted, which is physically impossible..." he claimed, addressing the meeting.
The Congress MP's remarks ignited criticism from the BJP.
Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan on Monday said that the frustration of continuous defeats is clearly visible on the face of Rae Bareli MP.
In a post on X, Pradhan said, "Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi has once again questioned the credibility of the Election Commission from a foreign land. It is very unfortunate that whenever Rahul Gandhi is abroad, he does not miss sharing his hateful thoughts towards India and India's democratic systems."
"In fact, the 'crown prince' of the 'royal' family, who has been in power for decades, is irritated by the recognition India's glorious democratic traditions are getting at the global level. This is the reason why he does not miss any opportunity to insult the country and its citizens," Pradhan added.
Union Minister urged Congress MP Rahul Gandhi not to hurt India's democratic dignity merely for losing elections.
"Not only the country but the world also believes in our great democratic values and its credibility. But the frustration of continuous defeats is clearly visible on Rahul Gandhi's face. I request Rahul Gandhi not to hurt India's democratic dignity on the basis of electoral victory or defeat," Dharmendra Pradhan said. (ANI)
