The full story

The Bharatiya Janata Party announced plans to stage nationwide protests across all state headquarters following remarks made by Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge during an event in Patna. The controversy arose when Mr. Kharge responded to an audience interruption by stating that even the Prime Minister's father would go, prompting severe condemnation from ruling party leaders. Union Home Minister Amit Shah accused the Congress leader of violating all norms of decorum, while other BJP figures characterized the language as unparliamentary and indicative of ideological bankruptcy. Allied parties including the LJP and JD(U) also voiced condemnation.
