Congress Protest in Solan Sparks Political Exchange Over Symbolic Act
Congress workers in Solan protested against the central government's policies, using a symbolic act of playing a flute before a buffalo to represent alleged government indifference to opposition voices. Congress leaders, including state in-charge Rajni Patil, criticized the Centre's approach and announced plans for wider campaigns. The BJP responded sharply, with spokesperson Rakesh Jamwal condemning Patil's remarks as disrespectful to Prime Minister Modi and accusing Congress of political desperation. The protest reflects ongoing political tensions ahead of upcoming elections.
