Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra slammed the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party for the poster they made of Rahul Gandhi, portraying him as the mythical character of Ravana. The poster showed Priyanka’s brother and Wayanad MP Rahul Gandhi with a bearded visage and seven heads, reminiscent of Ravana.
“Most respected @narendramodi ji and @JPNadda, to what level of degradation do you want to take politics and debate? Do you agree with the violent and provocative tweets being posted from the official Twitter handle of your party? Not much time passed and you took a vow of uprightness. Have you forgotten oaths like promises?”, Priyanka Gandhi wrote on X, roughly translated from Hindi.
सर्वश्री @narendramodi जी एवं श्री @JPNadda जी! आप राजनीति और बहस-मुबाहसे को गिरावट की कौन-सी मंज़िल तक ले जाना चाहते हैं?

आपकी पार्टी के आधिकारिक ट्विटर हैंडल से जो हिंसक और उकसाऊ ट्वीट किये जा रहे हैं, क्या उसमें आपकी सहमति है ?
ज़्यादा समय नहीं बीता, आपने शुचिता की क़सम…
On Thursday, the BJP initiated an attack against Congress leader Rahul Gandhi by sharing a graphic portraying him as the Asura king from Ramayana, Ravana.

The graphic ignited a debate on social media, with supporters and critics expressing various opinions about its symbolism and intent.
Meanwhile, Congress general secretary KC Venugopal called the graphic of Rahul Gandhi posted by BJP, “shameful”.
“No words are enough to condemn the ‘shameful’ graphic on the BJP handle comparing Rahul Gandhi ji to Ravana. Their nefarious intentions are clear, they want to murder him. He, who lost his grandmother and father to assassinations. They withdrew his SPG protection to score petty political points,” Mr Venugopal posted on X.
