Members of the Arunachal Congress staged a protest after a First Information Report was filed against Rahul Gandhi, demanding its withdrawal.
Arunachal Congress leaders gathered in the state to demonstrate their opposition to a First Information Report (FIR) lodged against Rahul Gandhi. The protest was organized shortly after the FIR became public, with party workers holding placards and chanting slogans condemning the legal action.
The party has not disclosed the specific allegations contained in the FIR, but it described the filing as politically motivated and harmful to democratic discourse. Arunachal Congress officials urged the authorities to withdraw the report and called for a transparent investigation into the matter.
Political analysts note that the incident adds to the growing tension between national opposition figures and regional party units. The Congress party at the centre has pledged to support its state counterpart in seeking legal recourse and safeguarding Rahul Gandhi's rights.
