‘Crossing limits of indecency’: Amit Shah slams Mallikarjun Kharge over Modi remark

The BJP has harshly criticized Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge for his "father of Modi" remark aimed at Prime Minister Narendra Modi during an event in Patna, Bihar on Sunday. Union Home Minister Amit Shah accused the Congress of violating all standards of political etiquette by "targeting Modi ji's father". Other BJP officials also criticized the Congress chief.

Kharge was present at the 139th birth anniversary commemoration of Bihar's first chief minister, Shri Krishna Singh, when an audience member shouted "Modi will not go anywhere". In response, Kharge declared "Even his father will go". Amit Shah alleged that the Congress repeatedly employs abusive language against the Prime Minister and his family.

On X, Shah stated that Kharge had "shattered all norms of decorum by making an indecent remark about Modi ji's father in Patna". He claimed that this was not the first instance of the Congress party using abusive language against Modi ji or his family. At times, they have insulted his revered mother, called him the "merchant of death", and mocked his poverty by labeling him the "chaiwala".

Shah asserted that under Rahul Gandhi's leadership, the Congress party continues to cross the limits of indecency every day.
