Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge faced criticism for questioning the effectiveness of taking dips in the Ganga at a rally in Madhya Pradesh. BJP accused Kharge of anti-Hindu sentiment, emphasizing the significance of Maha Kumbh. Kharge apologized if he hurt sentiments but insisted religion shouldn’t exploit the poor. BJP condemned the remarks, defending Sanatan faith.
