Politics heated up due to alleged misbehavior with female journalist during protests in Delhi


A huge and heated controversy broke out in the political circles of the national capital New Delhi when a woman journalist, who was doing media coverage during a major protest of the Congress Party, was allegedly assaulted and misbehaved. Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has made very aggressive and serious allegations against Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi regarding this incident.

BJP leaders claim that when Rahul Gandhi and leaders of opposition parties were taking out a march in the capital, a woman journalist present there was allegedly pushed, due to which she fell on the ground and got seriously injured. Ever since this incident came to light, there has been an uproar in Delhi politics and a new political conflict has erupted between the party and the opposition.

Bharatiya Janata Party’s national spokesperson and other senior leaders have fiercely targeted Rahul Gandhi by sharing a video of this incident. BJP leaders say that there is a lot of difference in the conduct and behavior of leaders who often talk about respect, safety and rights of women from public platforms.

BJP spokespersons said that targeting and thrashing a female journalist who was covering the protest while merely performing her professional duty was a very shameful and condemnable act. The ruling party leaders also alleged that during this entire incident, the Congress party or its workers were insensitive instead of helping the injured woman, which exposes their claims of democratic values.

According to the information received, after getting injured in this incident, the victim female journalist was immediately admitted to the nearby hospital, where considering her condition, the doctors have kept her under observation. According to doctors, after initial examination, X-ray and ultrasound, they are being given necessary medical assistance.

On receiving information about the incident, local BJP MLAs and many party officials immediately reached the hospital and met the injured journalist and his family members to inquire about their well-being. Speaking to reporters outside the hospital, the victim narrated her ordeal and said that she was present there only for her coverage, but due to this unpleasant incident, she has suffered a lot of trouble both physically and mentally.

After this entire incident, a debate has erupted in the media world and social media platforms across the country. Many questions are being raised regarding the freedom of the press and the safety of working journalists. On one hand, while the opposition parties are preparing to give their clarification on this matter, on the other hand, BJP is leaving no opportunity to corner the Congress leadership by raising this issue aggressively.

The tension between political parties regarding this matter is likely to increase further in the coming days, as videos and allegations and counter-allegations related to this incident are continuously increasing.
