  "account": "Karnataka Leader of Opposition R. Ashok ridiculed Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, urging him to visit a Bagalkot school where the roof had collapsed, causing students to be in danger. Ashok questioned how Gandhi could perform the 'Chhatron Ki Goonj' (voice of students) initiative in such a precarious situation. He accused Gandhi of making promises and speeches without delivering on them, highlighting the irony of Congress, a party known for advocating for justice (nyay), failing to ensure the safety of classrooms in their own state. Ashok emphasized that the affected students were real children, not just statistics, and demanded that Gandhi pay a visit to the school to hear firsthand from the children before answering the nation.",
