Political Turmoil in India: Accusations and Defences Rock the Parliament

In a fiery session at the Rajya Sabha, Prime Minister Narendra Modi came to the defense of BJP leader Ravneet Singh Bittu and nominated MP C Sadanandan Master. The tension arose after Congress leader Rahul Gandhi referred to Union Minister Bittu as a 'traitor', a remark that drew strong reactions from BJP members who accused Gandhi of insulting the Sikh community.

Modi criticized the Congress party for allegedly harboring hatred towards Sikhs, pointing out the internal divisions within the party and interpreting Gandhi's comments as displays of arrogance. The Prime Minister highlighted Bittu and the Sikh community's contributions, presenting them as unacknowledged by Congress.

Meanwhile, Modi spotlighted the story of C Sadanandan Master, whose poignant display of artificial limbs in the House underscored the personal toll of political violence. Allegedly targeted by CPI(M) workers decades ago, Sadanandan has since turned politician, with Modi lauding his resilience and contrasting it with the lack of regret he perceives in their ideological opponents.
