Bharatiya Janata Party national spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi on July 30 slammed the Congress without naming it for the remark made by a party MP against President Droupadi Murmu and said it is unfortunate such venom was being spread when the country was celebrating 75 years of Independence.
In a reference to the remark by Congress MP Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury, Mr. Trivedi said in Raipur, "It is a pious coincidence that when the country is celebrating Amrit Mahotsav year of Independence, a woman who comes from the tribal community has for the first time reached the apex constitutional post.. But it is unfortunate that even in this Amrit Kaal venom is being spread."
