Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Tuesday attacked the Modi government, alleging that it had turned the “mother of democracy” into a “muzzled democracy.” His remarks came amid the Congress’s criticism of the Centre over security arrangements in the national capital.
The party said the government was “converting Delhi into a fortress” to prevent youth protests. The statement was made in the context of demonstrations and the heightened security presence in the city.
Kharge’s comments were part of the Congress’s broader attack on the government over handling of dissent and public protests. The party did not provide further details in the input about the protests or the specific measures taken by authorities.
