The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has filed a case against Mallikarjun Kharge (president of the Indian National Congress) for allegedly making inflammatory remarks at an election rally in Sribhumi district, Assam. Kharge reportedly compared the BJP and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) to poisonous snakes, suggesting that such threats should be eliminated immediately. This comparison has drawn sharp criticism from BJP leaders, who claim it violates political decorum and aims to incite division among the populace.

This incident comes amidst heightened political tensions in Assam as the state prepares for elections on April 9. The Congress party has yet to issue an official response to the situation.
