Scindia, other ex-royals slam Rahul for remark on British ties with 'pliant maharajas'
Rahul Gandhi faced criticism from descendants of Indian royal families, including BJP minister Jyotiraditya Scindia, for claiming in an opinion piece that the East India Company exploited Indian rulers. Scindia accused Gandhi of historical ignorance and harboring a colonial mindset. Congress defended Gandhi, suggesting his critics were merely demonstrating loyalty to their current political affiliations.
