Challenging All India Congress Committee(AICC) vice-president Rahul Gandhi’s claim of having acquired Master of Philosophy (M.Phil) degree from the famous Cambridge University, former Minister of Law & Justice Subramanian Swami said that Rahul didn’t get M.Phil degree from the British University and despite the fact, if he would mention about the degree while filing nomination for the Lok Sabha elections, he would file a case against him.
“During an interview to a TV channel, Rahul said on camera that he would show me M.Phil degree. Subsequently, I wrote him later to do that, but till today there has been no answer from his side,” said the BJP leader on Friday during a Press conference in Ahmedabad.
A staunch opponent of Nehru-Gandhi dynasty, Swami also distributed a certificate he availed from University of Cambridge to mediapersons. The certificate showing the name of ‘Mr Raul Vinci’ suggested that he failed subject — National Economic Planning & Policy. Swami claimed that Rahul did take admission as Raul Vinci for security purpose.
“Rahul took further legacy of failure. His father Rajiv, grandmother Indira and even great grandfather Jawaharlal Nehru were also failed in overseas universities. In fact, Nehru was given ‘Gentleman Pass’ remark, which was sophisticated term for the failed student,” he said.
The BJP leader also raised issue of Sonia’s background. He said that Sonia’s father was with Hitler’s Army and was caught by Russian troops and was sent to jail. Generally, Hilter’s soldiers were not released for 20 years, but Sonia’s father was released in just four years, said Swami adding that it became possible because he opted to work for Russian spy agency KGB.
