Karnataka Minister Priyank Kharge has strongly defended his father, AICC President Mallikarjun Kharge, over a controversial remark comparing the BJP and RSS to a 'poisonous snake.' Speaking to reporters, Priyank clarified that the metaphor was about confronting harmful ideologies rather than nurturing them.
Responding to Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma's comments, Priyank accused him of being 'frustrated' and enjoying 'caste privilege.' He criticized Sarma for his remarks against the elder Kharge, arguing they reflect RSS ideology that is detrimental to societal progress.
The controversy escalated after RSS filed a police complaint against Mallikarjun Kharge. Priyank questioned the legal standing of the unregistered organization making such a move, further alleging that the RSS evades taxes while claiming patriotism.
