Congress president Rahul Gandhi took on the BJP government at the Hindustan Times Leadership Summit 2018, accusing it of imposing a “single, suffocating ideology on 1.3 billion people”. Speaking at the Summit in New Delhi, Gandhi said, “Reimagining India for the BJP, RSS is to shut the imaginations of Indians.” The theme of the summit was ‘Reimagining The Future’. Underlining the difference between the Congress and the BJP, he said “India is a partnership between all its peoples” and the Congress “didn’t believe in binaries”. When asked if he will take the top job next year if his party comes to power, he said that opposition parties have decided to first defeat the BJP in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections and then later decide on who will be Prime Minister.
