The BJP has accused Congress Chief Mallikarjun Kharge of disrespecting President Droupadi Murmu and former President Ram Nath Kovind by mispronouncing their names during a public address. Addressing the media in New Delhi, BJP spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia said that this reflects the Congress party’s anti-women and anti-Dalit mindset. He demanded that Mr. Kharge issue a written apology for his remarks. Mr. Bhatia also asked Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and other party leaders whether they would condemn Mr. Kharge’s remarks.
