A fresh political controversy has surfaced after AAP leader Anurag Dhanda accused the BJP of targeting the family of an AAP legislator in Gujarat. In a post on social media, Dhanda alleged that while Prime Minister Narendra Modi had earlier expressed anguish over remarks against his mother during the Bihar elections, the BJP is now engaging in similar conduct.
The allegations pertain to the reported harassment of the elderly mother of AAP MLA Gopal Italia. Dhanda claimed that such actions reflect a contradiction in the BJP’s stance and accused the party of adopting tactics it had previously criticised.
Anurag Dhanda: Political Reactions Intensify
The statement has added to the ongoing political tensions between the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), particularly in Gujarat where AAP has been trying to expand its political footprint. Party leaders have used the issue to question the BJP’s approach towards political opponents.
No Official Response Yet
As of now, there has been no detailed official response from BJP leaders regarding the specific allegations. The issue is likely to trigger further political debate, with both sides expected to escalate the matter in the coming days.
Growing War of Words
Such exchanges underline the increasingly sharp rhetoric in Indian politics, especially on social media platforms, where leaders frequently call out opponents over alleged inconsistencies and actions. The development may further intensify the ongoing political discourse ahead of upcoming electoral contests.
