A viral video showing a female Congress leader being inappropriately touched during a rally in Haryana has sparked significant backlash against the Congress party. Prominent Congress MP Kumari Selja condemned the incident, calling for immediate action against the perpetrators, who were allegedly close aides of Congress candidates. The BJP seized on the controversy, accusing the Congress of failing to protect its female members and labeling it the 'most anti-women party'. BJP spokespersons claimed that the incident reflects a broader culture of disrespect towards women within Congress, questioning the silence of party leaders like Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Vadra. The incident occurred during a rally on September 3, but gained traction on social media just as voting concluded in Haryana, complicating the Congress party's election prospects. Selja confirmed that the victim expressed her distress over the harassment, demanding accountability from the party leadership.
