Congress vs. Election Commission: Kharge's 'Terrorist' Remark Sparks Controversy

The Congress party has rebuked the Election Commission for sending a stern notice to its president, Mallikarjun Kharge, regarding his controversial remark about Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The party alleges that the Election Commission is functioning under the Union home ministry's influence, claiming this is an attack on the Constitution.

Amid elections in Tamil Nadu and West Bengal, Congress accused the commission of prioritizing political expediency over democratic integrity.
