A sizable gathering of Congress workers staged protests here on Saturday, condemning 'objectionable' comments made by certain NDA leaders against party leader Rahul Gandhi.
The protesters crossed barricades outside the collectorate, prompting the police to use mild force to disperse them.
Party leaders nationwide have been rallying against 'indecent' remarks by BJP officials, including Union minister Ravneet Singh Bittu. The Congress has lodged a police complaint, asserting the remarks aimed to compromise Gandhi's security and disrupt peace ahead of the Assembly polls.
Former Rajasthan minister Ashok Chandna, addressing the protest in Bundi, claimed that the BJP government was ignoring public issues, instead, creating distractions with such statements.
