A fresh political storm has erupted in Bihar after Congress leader Rahul Gandhi allegedly questioned the strength and role of the armed forces during a rally in Aurangabad. Senior BJP leader Anurag responded sharply, accusing Gandhi of repeatedly making remarks that divide society along caste and religion lines and now extending those attacks to the army. Anurag told ABP News that such statements undermine national morale and serve narrow political ends. Anurag argued that criticisms of the armed forces come from those who seek short-term electoral advantage and claimed that opponents have historically mocked India’s security actions, including air strikes and operations. He said the opposition’s narrative damages troop morale and weakens national unity. The BJP leader also referenced Rahul Gandhi’s past questions on social representation and alleged that the Congress has a pattern of politicising institutions. The exchange has intensified political rhetoric in Bihar, where both alliances are vying for public sentiment ahead of the elections. Observers say the controversy is likely to dominate campaign discussions and further polarise opinion. Both parties are expected to press their narratives across rallies and media channels in the coming days.
