BJP slams Rahul Gandhi for 'hinsa hathya' comment; Political firestorm erupts

New Delhi: In a recent session of Parliament, Rahul Gandhi's remark using the phrase "Hinsa Hathya" has sparked controversy and drawn sharp criticism from the BJP, leading to heated debates both inside and outside the political arena. During a parliamentary debate, leader of the opposition, Rahul Gandhi, used the phrase "Hinsa Hathya" (murder of violence) to emphasize the impact of violence on society.

At the Jharkhand BJP working committee meeting in Ranchi, Shah spoke to the party's employees and remarked, "We often observe that in democracy, arrogance comes after winning." These individuals hold authority in Jharkhand. In addition to bringing up NEET and Agniveer during the debate on the Motion of Thanks to the President's address, the Congress leader also attacked the ruling BJP for what she perceived to be divisive policies, prompting the ministers to step in.

Gandhian interpretation

Gandhi has been interpreting the election results as the opposition INDIA bloc's win because the BJP was unable to secure a majority in parliament on its own. This choice of words has been interpreted differently across party lines, leading to accusations and counter-accusations. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) swiftly condemned Rahul Gandhi's choice of words, alleging that such rhetoric could be misinterpreted and lead to misleading narratives about their stance on violence. The party accused Gandhi of using inflammatory language for political gain.

Conflict arises 

The incident has intensified the ongoing political tension between the Congress and the BJP, highlighting deeper ideological divisions on how to address and discuss issues related to violence and its implications on society. Both parties have resorted to robust defense and criticism in response to the controversy. The public response to Rahul Gandhi's remark has been varied, with some supporting his attempt to highlight the severity of violence, while others criticize the choice of words as politically charged and divisive. Social media platforms have become battlegrounds for supporters and detractors alike
