Tensions Rise as MP Ajendra Singh Lodhi Slams PM Modi, Faces Charges

Samajwadi Party MP Ajendra Singh Lodhi was booked in Mahoba for assault and promoting hate after calling PM Narendra Modi 'anti-national.' The BJP plans protests across districts in response. Lodhi criticized Modi's policies and warned of consequences if demands to address power issues remain unmet.

In a significant political fallout, Samajwadi Party MP Ajendra Singh Lodhi has come under fire after being booked in Mahoba on charges of assault and promoting hate. This move follows his controversial comments labeling Prime Minister Narendra Modi as 'anti-national,' prompting backlash from political circles.

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has demanded swift justice, with plans for protests at district headquarters statewide set for Wednesday. The charges against Lodhi include instigating caste enmity and causing disruption in public services, accusations that stem from a complaint by a local BJP media in-charge.

Lodhi's offensive against Modi, which also criticized the Prime Minister's foreign visits and austerity measures, has sparked controversy, leading to widespread outrage from BJP leaders. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath condemned Lodhi's comments as a 'serious blow to democratic decorum,' further escalating tensions.
