Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi criticised the BJP on Sunday, accusing the ruling party of fostering a climate of fear and hatred across India. His remarks follow the recent alleged assault of an elderly Muslim man by co-passengers in a Maharashtra train on suspicion of carrying beef and the lynching of a man in Haryana. Gandhi, in a post on X, stated, "Those who have climbed the ladder of power by using hatred as a political weapon are continuously establishing the reign of fear across the country. Hateful elements hidden in the form of mobs are openly spreading violence, challenging the rule of law." The Maharashtra incident occurred on an express train near Igatpuri in Nashik district, where a video surfaced showing a group of people assaulting and verbally abusing the elderly man. The Government Railway Police (GRP) has launched an investigation into the incident. Haryana: Security Tightened After Migrant Worker Beaten to Death Over Beef Allegations in Charkhi Dadri District.
