An FIR was registered against Rahul Gandhi in Haldwani, Uttarakhand, on Sunday night. He faces charges under BNS sections and the SC/ST Act for his statements. A local resident alleged Gandhi gave a caste angle to routine cleaning work. The complainant stated Gandhi’s words hurt caste sentiments and incited hostility. This development follows a purification ritual at a rally venue addressed by Mallikarjun Kharge.
