The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has registered a complaint with the Election Commission against Rahul Gandhi for his “panauti” jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi. A party delegation including general secretary Radha Mohan Das Agarwal and another functionary Om Pathak has sought action against the Congress leader. 

They also sought election watchdog’s action against Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, accusing him of falsely claiming that Modi’s caste was included in Gujarat’s OBC list when he was the state chief minister. 

In a letter to the Election Commission, the delegation requested the poll watchdog to intervene urgently by taking appropriate legal action against Mallikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi for their fraudulent, baseless and abusive practice and to pass a prohibitory order against them. It added that if an action is not taken, it will spoil the electoral environment, where abusing, usage of objectionable and offensive language to defame respectable individuals and spreading false news will become inevitable.

The letter further mentioned that calling any person a Jaibkatra not only amounts to vicious abuse and personal attack but also a character assassination of that person against whom such remarks has been made with a clear intent to harm his reputation and mislead the public.

Addressing an election rally in Rajasthan’s on Tuesday, Rahul Gandhi said that the Indian Cricket team were well on their way to win the world cup but Panauti (referring to Narendra Modi) made them lose. He added that the people of the country know this. 

On Wednesday, in another election rally in Rajasthan, Rahul Gandhi said that the pickpocket never comes alone, there are three people. One comes from the front, one from the back and one from the distance, he added. The Congress leader further elaborated that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s job is to divert public attention while Adani comes from behind and takes the money.

BJP to contest all 13 Punjab Lok Sabha seats for first time since 1996, says state BJP chief Sunil Jakhar

Jakhar said that the Lok Sabha election was the most appropriate time for the BJP to contest independently, as the state is looking for an option

Punjab BJP state President Sunil Jakhar recently said that his party will contest all 13 Lok Sabha sears in the state independently. The BJP has not allied with the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) since 1996.

Sunil Jakhar in an interview with a news publication, said that this decision signifies a new chapter in the party’s strategy in Punjab. The BJP had allied with the SAD in Punjab for over two decades, and is considered to be a major coalition in the state’s political landscape.

The BJP state chief noted that the decision to contest independently was taken on the account of the feedback from the public and party members, reflecting a growing sentiment within the BJP to establish a stronger, independent presence in Punjab.

Jakhar continued that the Lok Sabha election was the most appropriate time for the BJP to contest independently, as the state is looking for an option. He asserted that Punjab tried out-of-the-box experiment in form of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), but are dissappointed with them.

He further highlighted the BJP’s work under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, particularly in securing minimum support prices for farmers, as key accomplishments that the party will present to the electorate. This development follows as the BJP aims to consolidate its position and expand its influence in Punjab.

Notably, the SAD was one of the oldest allies of the BJP. Nonetheless, the SAD severed ties with the NDA in September 2020 over the now repealed farm laws that saw widespread protests in northern India.

Speaking about coalition with SAD, the BJP state chief said that the alliance was not political but a social one. He added that the party is facing a battle of survival, and that its leader Sukhbir Singh Badal has sins to wash of, including the drug problem and sacrilege cases.

Election in Punjab’s 13 Lok Sabha seats is scheduled for June 1, 2024. This development is expected to significantly alter the dynamics of the electoral battle in Punjab, traditionally dominated by the SAD-BJP coalition and the Congress party.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday, May 16, attacked the opposition for allegedly trying to spark violence by disseminating false information over the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). He continued by saying that citizenship under the CAA is now being granted by the country.

The prime minister claimed no one can do it, despite the INDI alliance members claims that they will remove CAA. Get real-time updates about the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.

PM Modi said, on the CAA issue, political parties like Congress and Samajwadi Party propagate false information. They made every effort to ignite riots and burn the entire nation, including UP, the PM added. Members of this INDI alliance still maintain that Modi introduced the CAA and that it will be removed the day he leaves the office.

Challenging the opposition, PM said, Desh mein koi maai ka laal paida hua hai jo CAA hata sake? (has anyone been born in this country who has the ability to repeal the CAA?) No one is able to remove CAA, he said. Addressing the rally in Lalganj, Azamgarh, Uttar Pradesh, PM Modi said, they tried to do votebank politics under the guise of fake secularism, and they made Hindus and Muslims fight against each other.

Under the CAA, the process of giving citizenship certificate to refugees has already begun, the PM added. These are the individuals who have long been residents of the county as refugees and who suffered from the country’s religiously motivated division, PM Modi continued.

Additionally, PM Modi alleged that the Congress was ignoring these refugees.

Under the mask of CAA, the Congress and the SP attempted to spread misinformation. They tried to create disturbances in Uttar Pradesh and all across the country, he claimed.

PM Modi added that the enthusiasm displayed by Srinagar voters during the polls is evidence that nobody can reinstate Article 370 and engage in vote-bank politics.

Congress and Samajwadi Party wanted to split the national budget and give 15% to minorities, PM Modi said.

Swati Maliwal case: Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal refuses to answer, Akhilesh Yadav says other issues are more important

Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal was assaulted by Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s Personal Secretary Bibhav Kumar

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal refused to comment about AAP Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal’s assault case during a joint press conference with Akhilesh Yadav in Lucknow today. On Monday, May 13, Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal allegedly suffered an assault by Kejriwal’s personal secretary Bibhav Kumar.

Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Akhilesh Yadav, who was attending the press conference along with AAP leader Sanjay Singh and Kejriwal, said there are other issues that are more important than this.

Kejriwal, who was seated between Akhilesh Yadav and Sanjay Singh, continued to avoid questions on the assault case. Sanjay Singh then asked about Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s silence on several topics, including the ethnic violence in Manipur.

When asked about the Swati Maliwal situation, AAP MP Sanjay Singh took a defensive posture throughout the press conference. He said that he had already given the required reaction to the issue and emphasized that the situation should not be used for political advantage.

Singh restated that the AAP operates as a unified entity. During the summit, he also expressed worries on the situation in Manipur.

The AAP MP said, after witnessing what occurred in Manipur, the entire nation was in pain, yet PM Modi remained silent on the matter. Thousands of women were raped by Prajwal Revanna, while PM Modi was pleading for Prajwal Revanna’s support. The officials physically assaulted DCW chief Swati Maliwal during our wrestlers’ protest at Jantar Mantar. PM Modi said nothing about these problems. Our family, AAP, has made a very clear statement. All these points he raised should have answers from the BJP and PM Modi. On Swati Maliwal’s issue, politics should not be engaged, Sanjay Singh added.

Meanwhile, days after the party threatened to take strict action against him, Bibhav Kumar was seen earlier on Wednesday night at the Lucknow airport with Sanjay Singh and the AAP national convener.
