Karina Shirodkar Alleges ‘Boot Licking’ of Gandhi Family Is the Only Criterion to Join Congress

Goa Khabar: BJP leader Karina Shirodkar launched a sharp attack on the Congress, alleging that the only criterion for joining or remaining in the party is to “worship” and “boot lick” the Gandhi family. She made the remarks while reacting to the recent induction of Pratima into the Congress.

Shirodkar said the event made it clear that loyalty to the Gandhi family, rather than merit, determines one’s place in the Congress. She alleged that those seeking entry into the party are expected to praise and serve the Gandhi family.

Contrasting the BJP’s ideology, she said every BJP worker follows the principle of “Nation First, Party Second, Self Last,” and works with the objective of serving the nation.

Referring to the popular English saying, “Jack of all trades, master of none,” Shirodkar remarked that some political leaders could instead be described as “Jack of all political parties, loyal to none.” She alleged that repeatedly switching political parties reflects instability or personal gain rather than commitment to public service.

Continuing her criticism of Congress leaders and frequent party switchers, Shirodkar claimed that while “acid” runs through their veins, BJP workers are driven by patriotism and a strong desire to serve the nation. She said this, according to her, is the biggest difference between Congress leaders and BJP workers.
