From acid attacks to rape-murder: Andhra, Telangana’s history of ‘encounters’ in crimes against women

What's behind this

Rahul Gandhi’s remark that “smelt alcohol on him” was aimed at AAP chief Bhagwant Mann and sparked a backlash against the party, according to India Today. In a related development, Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge said Amit Shah must resign if the claim that the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) removed three crore infiltrators is true, and the party challenged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to accept Rahul Gandhi’s open‑debate challenge and answer questions on alleged vote‑chori, the Election Commission’s handling of the SIR and the government’s three‑crore‑infiltrator claim.
