Sting Operation Highlights Political Tensions Over Protests Against Modi Government
A sting operation by Times Now Navbharat revealed discussions among opposition-linked groups about staging protests similar to those in Bangladesh and Nepal, aiming to challenge the Modi government. BJP leaders, including spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia, accused opposition figures like Rahul Gandhi of attempting a regime change through these demonstrations. The opposition has protested alleged irregularities in the Election Commission but denies intentions to destabilize the government. The situation has sparked political debate over the nature and funding of the protests.
