# Kharge’s ‘Modi ka baap bhi jayega’ remark sparks uproar in Patna 2026-10-25T12:46:36+00:00 | Politics | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 5 independent outlets (6 source reports) Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge triggered a ruckus during his address at the 139th birth anniversary event of Bihar's first chief minister Krishna Singh in Patna on Sunday, 25 October 2026, after a heckler shouted that Prime Minister Narendra Modi would not go anywhere. Kharge responded, 'Modi ka baap bhi jayega,' which led to commotion. India Today and Times Now reported that Kharge then questioned Modi over his promise to bring back black money. Kharge called the protests against the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls a 'second war of independence' and demanded an immediate halt to the SIR exercise, annulment of all assembly polls held over the past two years, and the reintroduction of ballot papers. He alleged 'vote chori' in West Bengal, Haryana, Bihar and Maharashtra, and said, 'As long as RSS ideology is not eliminated, there will be no peace in the country.' He also prayed to Lord Ram to punish those who had looted wealth in his name over the Ayodhya temple. No further events were announced. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The five outlets uniformly report Kharge's sharp retort and his broader political attacks, though each leads with a different visual or rhetorical hook. ABP Live and Times Now foreground the ruckus and the 'baap bhi jayega' remark, while India Today adds Kharge's black-money challenge to Modi. New Indian Express and India TV give greater weight to Kharge's substantive demands on SIR and ballot papers, treating the heckler exchange as one element among several. The coverage is broadly neutral-report: no outlet editorialises, but the choice of lead fact shapes the reader's takeaway. The core political story remains Kharge's call to annul recent assembly elections and his framing of the anti-SIR movement as a 'second war of independence,' with no official response or next step named in the sources. ## Coverage Coverage: 4 sources, 4 neutral - abplive.com (neutral report) Leads with ruckus, reports Kharge's remarks without commentary. - indiatvnews.com (neutral report) Highlights heckler incident and assault claim, reports demands verbatim. - PTI - newindianexpress.com Leads with SIR and ballot demands, gives most policy detail. - timesnownews.com Leads with fiery exchange, frames as Kharge losing cool, then reports demands. - indiatoday.in (neutral report) Leads with video of exchange, adds black-money attack and Haldwani row.
