The Indian Lok Sabha elections, the world’s biggest democratic festival, started on April 19 and ended on April 26 and May 7. Polling will be held till June 1 and the results will be announced on June 4.
Elections are over in many states. However, in the states that are going to the polls, every talk of the leaders is drawing attention. In that way, the things that some people talk about become controversial and gather condemnation among the people.
The matter spoken by Sam Pitroda, who was in charge of the Congress party’s neighborhood team leader, received opposition and condemnation across the country. Sam Pitroda, who participated in the interview of the private media, said that India is a diverse country. People in the south-eastern part of India are like Chinese, those in the west are like Arabs, those in the north are like whites, and those in south India are like Africans. The matter was criticized by the BJP as a racist act by the Congress party. Sam Pitroda’s speech sparked outrage across the country.
After this he resigned from the Congress party. However, protests are being held in various places on behalf of the BJP. Today, BJP members staged a protest in front of the Congress party office in the capital Delhi.
Following this, protests have been announced in Tamil Nadu as well. Also, coordinators have been appointed for the same. A post has also been posted on the Tamil Nadu BJP’s official X site about this. In this, “Congress’ Overseas Indian Section President Mr. Sam Pitrota has said that Northeast Indians are Chinese, South Indians are African citizens, and those in the West are Arabs.
This is a very shameful and unfortunate racist comment. It hurts the unity and integrity of the country. As well as, our famous. Congress has always insulted the ancient culture. It is also trying to divide the country and its people
“Our party members should immediately hold demonstrations and press conferences in the district capitals to condemn this trend of the Congress and its leaders,” the BJP has been instructed.
