1984 Row Erupts Over INDIA Bloc Rally; BJP, Akali Dal Target Congress
The INDIA bloc's Ramlila Maidan rally has triggered a fierce backlash from the BJP and the Shiromani Akali Dal, with both parties accusing Congress of insensitivity for holding its protest on the anniversary of the 1984 anti-Sikh riots. While the Opposition framed the event as a campaign to "save democracy" and protest alleged voter disenfranchisement, the BJP and Akali Dal questioned the timing, alleging Congress cannot speak of protecting the Constitution while the wounds of 1984 remain unhealed.
