Congress Backs Pappu Yadav Following Violent Clash at Residence

Tiwari condemned the disruption, labeling the attempt to silence a six-time parliamentarian through physical intimidation as an affront to democratic principles. He argued that while one may disagree with Yadav’s ideological stance, the use of threats and violence is unacceptable. The incident follows Yadav’s public performance in Parliament, where he donned saffron robes to mimic a priest while criticizing the government over alleged irregularities in Ram Mandir fund collections.

Following the scuffle, Yadav claimed the incident was a calculated attempt on his life. He alleged that a bounty had been placed on him and stated that supporters apprehended an individual carrying a knife during the altercation. Beyond the immediate security threat, Tiwari pressed the Bharatiya Janata Party to address the underlying allegations of donation theft rather than relying on silence to protect those involved. He demanded legal accountability, asserting that political affiliation should not shield individuals from scrutiny regarding financial misconduct.
