In a recent political controversy, India's bloc parties labeled the Supreme Court's criticisms of Rahul Gandhi as 'unwarranted.' The Court's remarks targeted Gandhi's alleged comments on the Army made during his Bharat Jodo Yatra.
During a meeting with leaders from various parties of the INDIA bloc, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi assessed the Supreme Court's stance. All parties expressed a unified position, considering the judicial observation as an unnecessary infringement on the democratic rights of political parties.
Priyanka Gandhi Vadra defended her brother, asserting his respect for the Indian security forces, and emphasized his right to challenge the government on national matters, questioning the validity of the Court's interpretation.
