NEET Protest: Shazia Ilmi Accuses Congress of Spreading 'False Narrative' on Jantar Mantar Crackdown

'Amit Shah Can't Be Blamed': Shazia Ilmi Slams Congress The political confrontation between the BJP and Congress has intensified over the police action during the July 20 Jantar Mantar protest. While Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge have demanded Union Home Minister Amit Shah's resignation, accusing him of being accountable for the alleged police excesses, the BJP has strongly rejected the allegations. BJP spokesperson Shazia Ilmi termed the Congress' remarks unconstitutional and accused the opposition of spreading false claims about police firing and "shoot-at-sight" orders. She also defended Amit Shah, arguing that operational decisions during protests are taken by law enforcement agencies and not directly by the Home Minister.
