VHP Demands Apology from Sonia Gandhi Over Remarks on Hindu Victims and Babri Masjid
The Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) has demanded an apology from Congress leader Sonia Gandhi, accusing her of expressing selective concern over incidents involving Muslims while remaining silent on violence against Hindus. The VHP criticized Gandhi's reported grief over the Babri Masjid demolition, contrasting it with her response to the 2008 Batla House encounter and violence in Kashmir. The demand coincided with the release of Gandhi's memoir, sparking renewed debate over alleged appeasement politics and her stance on Hindu victims.
