Union Minister Nitin Gadkari has taken a decisive step against Congress leaders Mallikarjun Kharge and Jairam Ramesh, serving them a legal notice for sharing a 19-second clip from his interview on social media. The notice alleges that the intention behind the sharing was to “create confusion, sensation, and disrepute” for Gadkari and the BJP.
In the notice sent by Gadkari’s advocate, Balendu Shekhar, it is emphasized that the Congress party deliberately concealed the context and meaning of the interview, aiming to sow discord and division within the BJP ranks. Gadkari’s legal representative asserts that the selective sharing of the video was a calculated move, designed to distort his client’s words and tarnish his reputation.
The notice underlines Gadkari’s status as a Cabinet Minister of Road Transport and Highways in the Indian government and his association with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), highlighting his contributions and reputation over decades of public service. It condemns the Congress leaders’ actions as an attempt to undermine Gadkari’s credibility and the solidarity of the BJP, especially in the lead-up to the general elections.
Accusations in the notice point to a deliberate effort by the Congress leaders to fabricate a false narrative and attribute fictitious statements to Gadkari and other BJP leaders. The legal document emphasizes the harm caused to Gadkari’s reputation and the BJP’s image due to the widespread dissemination of the misleading content on social media platforms.
Furthermore, the notice demands the immediate removal of the offending post from the Congress party’s social media handle and a public apology to Nitin Gadkari within three days. Failure to comply with these demands would compel Gadkari to pursue all available legal avenues, including civil and criminal actions, against the Congress leaders at their own risk and expense.
The legal notice serves as a stern warning to those who seek to manipulate public discourse and undermine the integrity of political leaders through deceptive means. It reaffirms Gadkari’s commitment to upholding his reputation and the principles of fair and honest communication in the public sphere.
As the political landscape continues to witness intense scrutiny and strategic maneuvering, actions such as these underscore the importance of accountability and transparency in political discourse, ensuring that misinformation and slanderous attacks do not undermine the democratic process.
The notice concludes with a reminder that a copy of the legal document has been retained for record-keeping and further necessary action, signaling Gadkari’s unwavering determination to uphold his rights and defend his integrity against any attempts at defamation or manipulation.
