Rahul Gandhi's 'Shakti' Slip: BJP latches on, Rocky Political Journey Amid Elections for Cong?

Rahul Gandhi's recent statement at the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra's finale in Mumbai sparked controversy. While attempting to criticise BJP's tactics, his mention of "Shakti" in Hindu dharma was perceived differently, leading to BJP using it against Congress and Rahul. Congress defended Gandhi, attributing his words to BJP's power through RSS and 'Manuvaad.' However, the incident highlights the importance of careful language in political discourse, especially during elections, to avoid unintended consequences and misinterpretations. #RahulGandhi #BJPvsCongress #LanguageMatters #HinduDharma #ShaktiRow ~HT.97~PR.282~
