New Delhi, Jan 3 (IANS): Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday slammed the government on the agitation by farmers, whom he equated with 'satyagrahis' who will take their rights from the government.

"The country is facing a tragedy like Champaran; then, the British were Company Bahadur, and now the friends of PM are Company Bahadur," he tweeted in Hindi.

"But the agitating farmers are 'satyagrahis'; they will take their rights," he added.

Satyagraha denotes a policy of passive political resistance, especially that advocated by Mahatma Gandhi against the British rule in India.

Champaran satyagraha was undertaken by Mahatma Gandhi in 1917 during the freedom movement, leading the farmers' agitation against forced indigo farming.

    You had the audacity to ask that ?

    The man goes abroad with his mother but does not publicize it (probably accompanied her for medical reasons) whereas the national leader visits his mother and publicizes his picture touching her feet ?

    Difference is vast but in your mind only party is existing. Probably that's why we go to neighboring country gate-crashing on birthdays but citizens think that is duty too.
