Speaking at EIA University in Colombia, Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi warned that India’s democratic system is under unprecedented attack. Targeting the BJP government, he said India’s diversity of languages, religions, and traditions requires a democratic system to thrive. “India is a conversation among its people.
