Kharge’s remark against PM Modi ideological attack, not personal, says Congress general secretary K.C. Venugopal
‘Ideologically, of these Bharatiya Janata Party people, the parent is the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh and Kharge ji means that only,’ said K.C. Venugopal
On October 26, 2026, Congress General Secretary (Organisation) K.C. Venugopal defended party president Mallikarjun Kharge's remark against Prime Minister Narendra Modi, stating that the statement was an ideological attack, not a personal one. Venugopal said, "Ideologically, of these Bharatiya Janata Party [BJP] people, the parent is the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh [RSS], and Kharge ji means that only." This clarification came after Kharge's remark, which had been perceived as targeting Modi personally.
