Prime Minister Manmohan Singh today said government would take all "precautions" to ensure that any threat to Rahul Gandhi does not materialise but voiced concern over the "politics of hatred sweeping the country".
"Well, I and all sane persons should be worried about the politics of hatred sweeping the country. As regards to the threat to the life of Rahul Gandhi, government will take all possible precautions that this threat does not materialise," he told reporters accompanying him on his return from a two-nation trip to Russia and China.
He was asked about Gandhi's statement yesterday that he could be eliminated like his grand mother Indira Gandhi and father Rajiv Gandhi.
Speaking at an election rally in Rajasthan yesterday, Rahul has accused BJP of fanning communal flames and indulging in "politics of hatred" and said he may also be assassinated like his grandmother and father, but he was not bothered.
