New Delhi, Jul 27: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday said he is not going to lie about Chinese transgressions in eastern Ladakh even if it costs him politically, asserting he will say the truth as far as Indian territory is concerned.
Gandhi made these remarks in a tweet, along with an over-a-minute-long video, as part of a series launched by him on the India-China face-off along the Line of Actual Control(LAC) in eastern Ladakh.
Asked in the video how he would react to people who say his questions to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on China weakened India, the former Congress chief said, "If you want me to lie that the Chinese have not entered this country, I am not going to lie. I will simply not do it. I do not care if my whole career goes to hell. I am not going to lie."
"This disturbs me. Frankly, it makes my blood boil. How can some other nation just come into our territory?"
"Hiding the truth is anti-national. Bringing it to people's attention is patriotic," Gandhi said.
"So frankly, I do not care if it costs me politically. I do not care if I have no political career at all after that. But I am going to say the truth as far as Indian territory is concerned," he added.
Gandhi has been repeatedly attacking the prime minister and the government over Chinese transgressions on the LAC in eastern Ladakh.
"As an Indian, my number one priority is the nation and its people," he said on Monday.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has hit back at Gandhi over his attack on the government on the Ladakh face-off, alleging he is seeking to politicise defence and foreign policy matters and "wash their past sins of 1962 and weaken India".
BJP president JP Nadda has also alleged that for years, a dynasty has been trying to destroy Modi, while adding that those who want to destroy the prime minister will only end up causing further damage to their own party.

When people are ignorant about God, they make this mockery... If U want to know who is the TRUE GOD who gave us this life and who takes our life... Then U need to read the QURAN... which is a guidance to MANKIND.
QURAN clearly explains such fake gods which can b played around.There is no God but ALLAH and Muhammad pbuh is the last and final messenger of ALLAH who conveyed the message of Oneness and to worship him alone who is most merciful...
Please i request non muslims to hold for few days in your life of MEDIA islam which is fed to the viewers as a demonic religion... infact ALLAH(True God) ask us to use our INTELLECT to know the CREATOR who created U me and all that exists. and also to verify, research and do your own way of finding GOD ... If U R honest U wil find your CREATOR... Best of Luck
