The Story in Brief
The BJP has accused Congress leader Rahul Gandhi of spreading false narratives and using students for political gain. Party spokesperson Sambit Patra told reporters that no shots were fired during the July 20 Sansad Chalo march, as claimed by some protesters. Patra also questioned why Gandhi met Delhi students but only called protesting students in Jharkhand instead of visiting them, as reported by Siasat.com.
At Gandhi’s press conference, a woman alleged that police struck her in a private area during the march. The Times Now report highlighted the apparent inconsistency in Gandhi’s outreach, but there is no independent verification of either the police conduct or the BJP’s denial. Both versions remain unsubstantiated.
The Indian Opinion
This story pits two heavily partisan claims against each other without verified evidence. The BJP calls Gandhi’s account a “bundle of lies”, while the Congress side offers an uncorroborated allegation of police violence. Both narratives serve political ends. Readers should wait for independent bodies like a court or an inquiry panel to examine the medical and video records. Until then, treating either version as proven would be premature.
