“I will not bow down to anyone’s injustice” Rahul Gandhi quotes Mahatma Gandhi a day after he was stopped from visiting Hathras victim’s family

New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi quoted Mahatma Gandhi on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti in a tweet as he wrote, “I will not bow down to anyone’s injustice”, a day after he was manhandled, stopped and even arrested by Uttar Pradesh police while he was on his way to Hathras in Uttar Pradesh to meet the family of  Hathras gangrape victim along with Priyanka Gandhi and other Congress leaders.

Rahul Gandhi tweeted on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti-” ‘I will not fear anyone in the world … I will not bow down to anyone’s injustice, I will win the untruth with the truth and I can bear all the sufferings while opposing the untruth.’ Happy Gandhi Jayanti.”

‘मैं दुनिया में किसी से नहीं डरूंगा… मैं किसी के अन्याय के समक्ष झुकूं नहीं, मैं असत्य को सत्य से जीतूं और असत्य का विरोध करते हुए मैं सभी कष्टों को सह सकूं।’

गाँधी जयंती की शुभकामनाएँ।#GandhiJayanti
