BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi accused opposition leaders of disrespecting Hindu traditions during Navratri celebrations. The Rajya Sabha member targeted West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee for attending a Durga Puja event where organizers played what he called inappropriate music. He connected this incident to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's previous remarks about fighting Shakti.
Trivedi pointed to Karnataka's Congress government inviting a Muslim author to inaugurate Mysuru Dasara festivities as evidence of deliberate religious appeasement. The BJP leader also claimed authorities removed Union Home Minister Amit Shah's promotional materials during his Bengal visit. He alleged officials forced closure of a themed pandal and withdrew government funding from organizers who supported the display.
