New Delhi: The BJP Thursday alleged that Congress leader Rahul Gandhi-led “Voter Adhikar Yatra” in Bihar has crossed all “limits of insult, hate and tastelessness”, as it said abuses were directed at Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s mother during the campaign.
The BJP on its X handle refrained from posting the video of the incident, but its content shared online by a few handles shows some unidentified people using Hindi abuse for Modi from a dais raised during the Yatra.
PTI can not independently confirm the authenticity of the video.
The BJP said, “Tejashwi (Yadav) and Rahul are behind the use of such filthy language that it cannot be repeated from a public platform… Such lowliness was never seen before in politics. This Yatra has crossed all limits of insult, hate and tastelessness.”
They have used a very vulgar language against the prime minister’s late mother, it said.
The ruling party claimed that the choice of such an abuse for his mother shows the state of the opposition’s desperation, as Gandhi and Yadav had earlier invited leaders like M K Stalin and Revanth Reddy, chief ministers of Tamil Nadu and Telangana, respectively, who are accused of “insulting” people of Bihar.
People of Bihar will not forgive Gandhi and Yadav, the main campaigner for the RJD, for such a mistake, even if they apologise thousands of times, the BJP said, calling the incident “extremely shameful”.
