Senior Congress leader Digvijaya Singh sparked a controversy by sharing an old photograph of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and praising the organizational strength of the BJP and RSS. Singh highlighted how grassroots workers could rise to top positions, attributing it to the 'power of organisation.' He later clarified that he admired organizational capacity but opposed the RSS ideology, stating he was praising the party's structure and not the BJP or RSS. The BJP criticized the remarks, calling them an 'open rebellion' and using them to question Congress's internal functioning and Rahul Gandhi's leadership.
