Ruta Awhad's Remarks Comparing Osama Bin Laden to APJ Abdul Kalam Ignite Political Firestorm

BJP accuses the INDI Alliance of sympathizing with terrorists after Ruta Awhad's controversial comments at a Thane event.

Ruta Awhad, wife of NCP leader Jitendra Awhad, compared Osama bin Laden to former President APJ Abdul Kalam in a speech.
Awhad suggested that bin Laden was not born a terrorist but was made one by society, emphasizing the importance of education.
BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla criticized the remarks, accusing the INDI Alliance of having a 'soft corner' for terrorists.
The controversy has sparked widespread criticism and reignited debates over the perceived leniency towards individuals linked to terrorism by some political leaders.
Neither Jitendra Awhad nor the NCP has issued a statement clarifying or defending Ruta Awhad’s comments, adding to the political tension.
