Rahul Gandhi faces controversy for ‘Panouti’ remark; EC issues notice, seeks response by November 25th

In a significant development, the Election Commission (EC) has issued a formal notice to Rahul Gandhi, seeking a response by November 25th in connection with his contentious comments directed at Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The incident transpired during an election campaign in Rajasthan, where Gandhi employed offensive language against the Prime Minister.

The backdrop of this controversy is India’s loss in the World Cup final, a high-profile event held at Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium. Despite the Prime Minister’s presence at the stadium, Rahul Gandhi seized the opportunity to blame PM Modi for India’s defeat, sparking a new wave of political tension.

The Election Commission, in its notice, emphasized that the use of derogatory language against the Prime Minister is inappropriate for a senior leader in national politics. This move by the EC follows a series of heated exchanges between Rahul Gandhi and Prime Minister Modi, with the former being previously labeled as the ‘Sardar of Fools’ by the latter.

The issuance of the notice was prompted by demands to file a First Information Report (FIR) against Gandhi for his remarks during the election campaign. As the political discourse intensifies, all eyes are on Rahul Gandhi as he is expected to provide a detailed response to the Election Commission’s notice within the stipulated timeframe. The evolving situation adds another layer to the ongoing political dynamics between these prominent figures on the Indian political landscape.
