Mallikarjun Kharge Calls Congress Workers Useless Fellows Over DK Shivakumar Slogans
Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge lost his temper and warned party workers of disciplinary action after they shouted slogans in favor of DK Shivakumar during an event at Mg Road in Bengaluru. Addressing the gathering, Kharge referred to the shouting party workers as "useless fellows" and demanded an immediate end to the disruption.
The incident occurred when a group of Congress party workers began chanting slogans to show their support for DK Shivakumar. The chanting interrupted the proceedings, provoking a sharp reaction from the Congress President, who was present at the venue on Mg Road.
In his address, Kharge expressed his strong disapproval of the factional slogan-shouting. He openly called the participating workers "useless fellows" and warned them that such actions would not be tolerated by the party leadership.
Kharge further cautioned the workers that any continued indiscipline would lead to strict disciplinary action. The confrontation highlights the Congress leadership's current stance against factionalism and public displays of division within the party ranks.
The warning of disciplinary action served as a direct message to the party's rank and file regarding internal conduct. By addressing the workers directly as "useless fellows," the Congress President signaled that factional slogan-shouting would be met with consequences. The event in Bengaluru's Mg Road drew attention to the ongoing efforts by the party leadership to curb indiscipline and present a united front.
The impact of the incident highlights the leadership's firm stance against factional slogan-shouting and indiscipline within the party. While Congress workers frequently gather for party events, the outburst from the party president marks a significant public rebuke of internal factional behavior.
No official announcements regarding immediate suspensions or specific disciplinary cases have been made following the incident on Mg Road, but the warning remains active for all members.
