Adityanath focusing on deletion of Hindu voters to spread fear: Akhilesh

What's behind this

An Editors' Roundtable convened to discuss Sonia Gandhi’s memoir *Belonging* and its political reflections, according to India Today. The discussion came amid heightened political tension, with Congress leader Rahul Gandhi accusing Prime Minister Narendra Modi of phone tapping and challenging the PM to a public debate, a claim echoed by Prashant Kishor who described phone tapping as a reality in India, recalling the Pegasus controversy. The New Indian Express reported a fresh BJP‑Congress showdown over the allegation, while The Hindu noted criticism of Rahul Gandhi from BJP leaders. Earlier coverage also noted criticism of the memoir and warnings of a two‑party drift.
