  "account": "The Congress party has vehemently rejected Union Home Minister Amit Shah's characterization of the INDIA bloc's rally on November 1 at Delhi's Ramlila Maidan as a \"ghuspathiya bachao\" event. In a statement on Thursday, the party accused Shah of being unable to manage his own ministry and suggested he should return to his position as the BJP chief. This came after Shah made similar remarks during the BJP's \"Loktantra Bachao, Arajakta Hatao\" march in Karnal, where he described the INDIA bloc's rally as not a campaign to save votes, but a \"ghuspathiya bachao\" rally.\n\nPawan Khera, head of the Congress' media and publicity department, responded to Shah's comments on X, stating that if the Home Ministry is beyond his control, he should consider stepping down. He pointed out the failures of the past seven years, noting that the country has not managed three crores of infiltrators, Manipur has not been under control for three years, and even Arunachal Pradesh is not being managed. Khera also referenced recent terrorist incidents in Pulwama and Pahalgam, suggesting that Shah is not capable of handling such situations. He concluded by urging Shah to return to leading the BJP.",
