Rahul is Yuvraj of the masses only: Cong

8220;The first sentence is 8216;Yuvraj of the people8217;. But unfortunately, this has been blown up and distorted,8221; he said. Singhvi reminded that a few days ago, the AICC had stated that the Congress and the senior leadership of the party has never believed in sycophancy and has distanced itself from it.

Description of Gandhi as a 8220;Yuvraj8221; prince of common man by a Congress member sparked off an uproar in the Rajya Sabha on Monday, with the BJP objecting to the use of the term and calling it a blot on democracy.

Congress MP E M Sudarsana Natchiappan said by marching to the Divisional Commissioner8217;s office in Jhansi to know why people were being deprived of their right to employment under the NREGS, Gandhi had proved himself to be 8220;Yuvraj of people and the Yuvraj of my party8221;.

8220;If there is a Yuvraj, there has to be Rajmata and a Maharaja,8221; retorted Balbir Punj of the BJP, who took the floor after Natchiappan, saying Yuvraj was 8220;unacceptable in a democracy8221;.
