Tariq Karra's shameful handkerchief insult unmasks Congress' Dalit hypocrisy

JAMMU: The viral but shameful picture of Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee President Tariq Hameed Karra - covering his hand with a handkerchief while shaking hands with a Dalit family - has shocked the entire nation.

This is not just reprehensible because Karra is insulting Dalits but a chilling reminder of how deeply ingrained caste arrogance continues to plague the Congress and other pseudo seculars, who leave no opportunity to divide the Hindu society for their nefarious political agendas-divide and rule.

In a country where the Constitution enshrines equality and the right to dignity for every citizen, the actions of politicians like Tariq Karra speak volumes about the ground reality.

This single gesture has unmasked the true face of the Congress that keeps trumpeting the Dalit card and sheds crocodile tears on the plight of the downtrodden and socially marginalized. By instinctively using a handkerchief to avoid skin contact, Karra did not just insult the family standing before him - he insulted the very idea of equality, the spirit of the Constitution, and the soul of India. It is this kind of caste-based prejudice on public display by none other than a leader of a party that never fails to lecture others on inclusion.
