Viral Video: The nation celebrated its 78th Independence Day yesterday with great enthusiasm. During the event, Prime Minister Narendra Modi hoisted the national flag at the Red Fort and addressed the nation. While the focus was on the flag hoisting and the Prime Minister’s speech, a different debate emerged on social media involving Opposition leader Rahul Gandhi. A video that has gone viral linked to this discussion has rapidly gained traction online. The video captures a heated exchange during a live debate where BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla loses his temper at Congress spokesperson Supriya Shrinate for mentioning Rahul Gandhi. Let’s delve deeper into this incident.
Why Did Shehzad Poonawalla Lose His Cool on Supriya Shrinate?
A video has been circulating on social media, showing BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla getting visibly angry during a live debate on the ‘News 24’ channel. The debate, moderated by anchor Manak Gupta, involved a question directed at the BJP spokesperson about whether Rahul Gandhi had personally requested to be seated at the back during the Independence Day celebrations. During this discussion, Shehzad Poonawalla was mentioning his mother’s birthday when Supriya Shrinate, the Congress spokesperson, interjected, stating she disagreed with the question’s premise.
Supriya Shrinate’s disagreement seemed to be interpreted by Shehzad Poonawalla as a personal remark, which caused the debate to take a sharp turn. Poonawalla became upset and demanded an apology, warning the Congress spokesperson to refrain from making personal comments. The situation escalated into a brief verbal spat, which was eventually brought under control by the anchor’s intervention. The video of this intense exchange between the BJP and Congress spokespersons was shared by an X handle user named ‘The Analyzer.’
What Is the Full Story?
Since yesterday, a video is making rounds on internet that shows the Opposition leader Rahul Gandhi seated in the back row instead of the front row during the Independence Day celebration. This incident has sparked political debate. The Congress party claims that the central government disrespected the Leader of the Opposition by seating him at the back, while some reports suggest that Rahul Gandhi himself requested to sit in the back row. However, the Congress party has firmly denied these claims.
