A BJP-backed Sikh group protested outside Congress MP Rahul Gandhi's residence in Delhi after his recent remarks on religious freedom during a visit to the US. Gandhi spoke about the challenges Sikhs face in practicing their religion in India, drawing criticism from the BJP. The protestors, carrying placards accusing Gandhi of defaming Sikhs abroad, tried to break through police barricades at Janpath Road. BJP leaders accused Gandhi of creating a "dangerous narrative" by raising sensitive issues internationally. The protest highlighted the ongoing debate over religious freedom in India and its political implications.
