BJP Accuses Congress of Displaying Distorted Indian Map at Belagavi Event

The BJP criticized Congress for allegedly omitting Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and Aksai Chin from a map displayed at a party meeting in Karnataka, raising concerns about national unity and sovereignty.

BJP leaders claimed that a map displayed at the Congress Working Committee meeting in Belagavi excluded Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) and Aksai Chin, labeling it disrespectful to India's sovereignty.
BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi and other party members accused Congress of aligning with forces they allege aim to divide India, referencing past similar incidents involving the party.
Congress leaders reportedly distanced themselves from the map controversy, stating the banners in question were not officially sanctioned by the party.
The BJP linked the incident to broader allegations against Congress, including accusations of appeasement politics and connections to figures like George Soros, who the BJP claims funds anti-India narratives.
The meeting in Belagavi was organized to commemorate the centenary of Mahatma Gandhi chairing a Congress session in 1924, with top Congress leaders, including Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi, in attendance.
