Ajmer: The political controversy that started in Rajasthan over a social media post has now deepened. After the alleged objectionable post made by Congress leader Piyush Surana about the Chief Minister of Delhi, the matter is continuously taking political color. Now Congress Mahila Morcha has also openly come into the field on this issue.
Mahila Congress workers protested outside the Collectorate office demanding action against BJP leaders and Mahila Morcha officials. During the demonstration, the women raised slogans and staged a sit-in, accusing the police administration of bias.
Women’s protest outside the Collectorate
A large number of women workers reached the Collectorate under the leadership of Mahila Congress President Lakshmi Bundel. The protesters alleged that the police were not taking impartial action in the case and efforts were being made to save BJP leaders.
Women activists protesting said that if action has been taken against the Congress leader, then equal action should be taken against those who allegedly disrupted law and order and misbehaved with the person in police custody.
After the demonstration, the Congress delegation submitted a memorandum to the Superintendent of Police (SP).
Accusations against BJP Mahila Morcha leaders
In the complaint, Congress leaders alleged that when the police was taking Piyush Surana into custody, BJP Mahila Morcha District President Bharti Srivastava and the women present with her obstructed the police action.
Congress claims that during this time ink was thrown on Surana, he was pushed and abusive language was used. Congress leaders say that all this happened in the presence of the police, but till now no concrete action has been taken against the accused.
Mahila Congress has called for an impartial investigation, calling it a case of equal compliance with the law.
Controversy regarding re-post also
The controversy is not limited to the original post. Congress leaders have also demanded action against BJP city district president Ramesh Soni. It is alleged that he had re-posted the controversial post, but no action was taken against him.
Congress says that if action has been taken considering the original post as objectionable, then the same legal process should be applied to those who share it.
Party leaders alleged that due to political pressure the police was taking action against only one party.
what is the whole matter
The controversy started on April 30, when Congress leader Piyush Surana was accused of allegedly posting obscene and objectionable social media posts about the Delhi Chief Minister.
After this, BJP media coordinator Vikram Singh lodged a complaint at Ganj police station. The police took Piyush Surana into custody the same day.
During the incident, many women workers including BJP Mahila Morcha District President Bharti Srivastava reached the police station. Meanwhile, an incident of a woman throwing ink on Surana came to light, the video of which also went viral on social media.
Later Piyush Surana’s brother Shreyans Surana filed a case against BJP Mahila Morcha leaders and other women.
Congress accused the police of bias
Mahila Congress leaders allege that the police administration is not working impartially. He says that despite complaints being filed against BJP leaders, no effective action has been taken till now.
The protesters alleged that the BJP, being in power in the state, was trying to protect its leaders and was putting pressure on the police.
However, there has been no detailed public reaction on this matter yet from the police authorities.
Social media posts and political tension
Political controversies regarding social media posts have increased rapidly in recent years. Statements made by politicians and activists often lead to legal action and public protests.
Experts believe that it is very important to maintain decorum of language and expression during political dialogue on digital platforms. On the other hand, ensuring impartial action is also becoming a big challenge for law enforcement agencies.
Increasing activism of women’s organizations
The active participation of women’s organizations in this matter has given more political importance to the controversy. Mahila Congress says that any kind of partisan action will not be accepted in matters related to women’s respect and law and order.
On the other hand, BJP Mahila Morcha is also looking at this entire matter by linking it with the respect of women and political accountability.
