A political row has escalated over calls for regime change, with Union ministers targeting the Congress and Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi. Union ministers accused the opposition of attempting to destabilise the government through street violence and creating a Bangladesh-like situation, urging them to win elections instead. The Congress denied allegations of inciting violent protests, asserting that regime change represents the public's desire and reiterating that the party has never endorsed violence. Other opposition leaders also criticised the government over its record and handling of institutions.

00:00We begin this bulletin with the breaking news coming in over the regime change controversy.
00:05It seems another union minister has hit out at the Congress over the regime change call.
00:10Kiran Rejiju, the parliamentary affairs minister, has launched a scathing attack.
00:14He is saying that India is not Bangladesh.
00:18He has warned the opposition that the youth of India is not a fool
00:22and they want to build the country, not destroy it like the opposition.
00:27So clearly the BJP and the ministers of the government are going organs-placing at the opposition
00:33regarding the regime change controversy.
00:36It seems now, one by one, ministers of the government and senior leaders of the BJP
00:43are targeting Rahul Gandhi and the opposition about what they say
00:47that Congress is trying to bring in a regime change through violent methods,
00:51through street protests, violence on the streets, whereas Congress is denying that.
00:56They are saying that they are not calling for any violence.
00:59In fact, they are saying that regime change is something that the people want,
01:03the youth of the country want.
01:05So it's clearly the ministers and the senior leaders of the BJP versus Rahul Gandhi.
01:10Now, this entire conversation about regime change came into this eye of the storm
01:18when it was mentioned allegedly by the BJP, when it was targeting Neha Bora, the ISA leader,
01:29and they were saying that Rahul Gandhi has made her the poster girl of his politics.
01:38Now, this regime change row is intensifying.
01:42BJP netas and union ministers are going organs-placing on the opposition,
01:47dismissing the opposition party's entire narrative around regime change.
01:53Union minister Pralaj Joshi attacked Rahul Gandhi and claimed that the leader of opposition
01:57wanted a Bangladesh-like situation.
02:00In India, Pralaj Joshi went on to dare Rahul Gandhi to win a general election
02:04if he wanted to become the prime minister.
02:07Union minister Shivra Singh Chauhan also slammed the opposition and claimed
02:10that Rahul Gandhi and company were spreading lies and rumours to incite people.
02:16Earlier, P. Chidamram responded to allegations that the opposition was seeking
02:20to overthrow the government through violent street mobilisation.
02:23The senior congress leader claimed that the opposition had never supported violence
02:27as a means of bringing about a change in the government.
02:30Rajya Sabhai MP Kapil Sibyl also waded into the controversy
02:34and stated that people themselves wanted a change of government now.
02:39The senior advocate went on to suggest that the BJP government was doomed
02:43since it had captured institutions, embraced corruption, and manipulated voters' list.
02:50What you are expecting in the country?
02:54If you want to fight elections, if you want to sit on the chair of the either prime minister
03:02or chief ministry, you have to work.
03:04You have to work.
03:05So it is all foolish argument.
03:08And the regime change, people have given reply yesterday.
03:11They gave protest.
03:12It is all about that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that much, that,
03:15that, that, that, that, that, no one has come out.
03:17I have to say that, because no one has come out.
