Rahul's elevation will lead to Congress-free India: BJP

New Delhi, June 1  The BJP on Wednesday took a dig at the Congress over demands of elevation for its Vice President Rahul Gandhi as the party president, and said the country will move further towards Congress-free India if this happens.

"Though it's an internal matter of the Congress, but if such a decision is taken, the country will move ahead in the direction of a Congress-free India," Bharatiya Janata Party spokesperson Shahnawaz Hussain told the media here.

"When Rahul became the Congress vice president, the country moved in the direction of Congress-free India. If he becomes Congress president, it will move more in that direction," he added.
