The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has assigned a crucial responsibility to their Member of Parliament, Ramesh Bidhuri, for the Rajasthan Legislative Assembly elections. He has been designated as the party's election in-charge for the Tonk constituency. However, this decision has ignited a political controversy, with the Congress party alleging that the BJP is rewarding Bidhuri.
The controversy arises from the use of derogatory language by BJP MP Ramesh Bidhuri towards Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) MP Danish Ali. It is speculated that Congress leader Sachin Pilot might contest from the Tonk constituency in the upcoming elections, a stronghold for him. The Congress party responded to the BJP's decision by accusing them of offering a reward.
The opposition parties did not hold back in criticizing this move. Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra questioned how the BJP could entrust a new responsibility to someone who made objectionable remarks. Congress leader Jairam Ramesh joined in, dismissing the BJP's slogan of "Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas" as mere rhetoric.
The entire episode began when Ramesh Bidhuri's controversial comments targeting Danish Ali led to condemnation and an apology from Defense Minister Rajnath Singh. The BJP swiftly issued a show-cause notice to Bidhuri, demanding an explanation.
Nishikant Dubey, another BJP MP, introduced a new twist to the controversy, claiming that Danish Ali had provoked Ramesh Bidhuri by using offensive language. However, Danish Ali denied these allegations, leading to a political tug-of-war between the BJP and the opposition.
