BJP accuses Congress of 'targeting saints, soldiers, Sanatan Dharma' for vote bank politics

New Delhi, Aug 1 (UNI) Continuing its tirade against the Congress over the Malegaon Blast case issue following the verdict acquitting all seven accused, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) today slammed the Opposition party for what it termed as "targeting saints, soldiers, Sanatan Dharma, and the Constitution" over the past 17 years as part of a "deliberate strategy to malign Hindus for electoral gains".
Speaking at a press conference here, party spokesperson Sambit Patra said, “Saints, soldiers, Sanatan, and the Constitution — Congress attacked all four for 17 years. It was a calculated strategy to malign Hindus for vote bank politics. But in the end, truth has triumphed.”
Patra’s remarks came in response to the National Investigation Agency (NIA) court’s acquittal of all seven accused in the 2008 Malegaon blast case. He alleged that the Congress party, particularly the Gandhi family, had sought to create a false narrative of ‘saffron terror’, deliberately linking Hindu identity with terrorism.
