Congress is Now a 'Gang': BJP MLA Rameshwar Sharma Slams Kharge
BJP MLA Rameshwar Sharma slams Congress as a gang after Mallikarjun Kharge's controversial remarks about PM Modi's father.
The political atmosphere has reached a boiling point after BJP MLA from Huzur, Bhopal, Rameshwar Sharma launched a scathing attack on the Congress party. The controversy erupted following remarks made by Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge during a rally in Patna, which have now triggered a wave of condemnation from the ruling party.
The Spark: Kharge's Controversial Outburst
The incident occurred during an address in Patna when a member of the crowd shouted, "Modi will not go." In a sharp and unexpected reaction, Mallikarjun Kharge responded by stating, "Modi's father will also go." This comment has since become the center of a fierce political storm, with the BJP accusing the Congress leadership of crossing all boundaries of decency.
'A Fiefdom of Forty Thieves'
Reacting to the incident on October 25, 2026, Rameshwar Sharma did not hold back in his criticism. He asserted that the Congress party has ceased to function as a legitimate political entity and has instead transformed into a "gang."
Sharma elaborated on his stance, stating that while he previously believed Rahul Gandhi was merely maintaining a "fiefdom of forty thieves" and a group of thugs, Kharge's latest rhetoric has provided confirmation that the entire organization has devolved. According to the MLA, the party is now a gang intent on spreading anarchy through the use of force and intimidation.
High-Level BJP Backlash
The condemnation of Kharge's words has extended to the highest echelons of the BJP leadership:
- Amit Shah: The Union Home Minister accused the Congress of practicing the "politics of abuse" and claimed that the party is completely devoid of any coherent policy.
- J.P. Nadda: The BJP National President termed the comments as "objectionable," suggesting that a frustrated Congress is venting its electoral failures by targeting the Prime Minister and his family.
- Samrat Chaudhary: The Bihar Deputy Chief Minister described the statement as "highly unfortunate" and demanded a formal apology from the Congress leadership, specifically naming Rahul Gandhi.
Questions for the Gandhi Family
Adding to the pressure, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan questioned the internal dynamics of the Congress party. He criticized the language used by Kharge and posed a direct question to Sonia Gandhi, asking whether the party president was using such rhetoric under her instructions or those of Rahul Gandhi.
As the BJP continues to amplify the fallout from the Patna rally, the Congress party finds itself facing intense scrutiny over its leadership's communication and its approach toward the Prime Minister.
