Rahul Gandhi addresses media: Highlights

New Delhi: Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi today came to address the media during the press conference being addressed by Congress leader Ajay Maken in New Delhi. Here are the highlights of what he said:

• I am not going to get into a long drawn press conference
  
• I will make some of my opinions heard and then I'll go back to work
• I called up Makenji and he said he was meeting the press, speaking about the ordinance
  
• He gave me the political line that everyone will give you
  
• On ordinance: My personal opinion about the ordinance on lawmakers is that it is complete nonsense, it should be torn and thrown away
• Everyone does this and there is a time to stop this nonsense - and I really feel this is time political parties stop making such compromises
• When we make small compromises we compromise everything
• If we actually want to stop corruption then we cannot make these compromises
• I am not interested in what the Opposition is saying, I am only interested in what our government is doing
• What our government has done as far as this ordinance is concerned is wrong
