Bharatiya Janata Party Member of Parliament Nishikant Dubey launched a fierce verbal assault against the Congress party and its top leadership. Nishikant Dubey targeted Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge and senior leader Rahul Gandhi with sharp remarks. Taking to the social media platform X, he characterized the entire Congress party as a gathering of mad people.
Nishikant Dubey stated that there is no point in discussing people who have lost their minds. He explicitly remarked that Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge are both out of their minds. Additionally, using a regional colloquial reference, he posted that in Bihar there is a term called 'firstiana', and the entire leadership of the Congress party has reached that exact state.

Background of the Controversy and Political Clash
The aggressive statements from Nishikant Dubey arrived right after Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge delivered an address during a public event in Patna, Bihar. During that event in Patna, Kharge made a controversial remark targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi's father. Ever since that comment regarding the Prime Minister's father was made, political tensions have soared, drawing severe reactions from BJP leaders across the country.
The incident unfolded when Kharge was addressing a gathering in the capital city of Bihar. Amidst his speech, a member of the audience shouted out that Modi will not go. Reacting sharply to this interjection, an angry Kharge declared from the stage that even Modi's father will have to go. He further alleged during the speech that Prime Minister Modi has a habit of speaking falsehoods.
Political Fallout and Formal Complaints
The moment Mallikarjun Kharge made these remarks, a massive uproar ensued across political circles. The Bharatiya Janata Party immediately shifted into an aggressive mode. BJP leaders termed Kharge's choice of words as the language of thugs. Subsequently, numerous Union Ministers in the Modi government and Chief Ministers from various states started cornering Kharge, strongly condemning his statements.
Amidst the escalating controversy, a formal complaint has also been registered against Mallikarjun Kharge at a police station in Patna. With the political magnitude of the issue expanding rapidly, the top leadership of the BJP and central ministers are demanding an unconditional apology from Kharge. BJP leaders maintain that such remarks have shattered all bounds of political decorum and an apology is mandatory.
