BJP Leader Accuses Opposition of Aiding Cross-Border Influence Plot

Rajeev Chandrasekhar has directly accused sections of the opposition of collaborating in a sophisticated “cross-border influence campaign” targeting the Modi government. Taking to social media, the former minister described the effort as a classic destabilization strategy crafted by vested interests and supported by some domestic political players. He highlighted how fake narratives amplified through bots and AI tools are being used to shape public perception against India’s progress. Chandrasekhar pointed out that despite facing multiple global challenges, the Indian economy continues to move forward under strong leadership. He dismissed the possibility of any “cockroach,” opposition figure, or foreign interest succeeding in shaking national unity. The remarks have triggered strong reactions, with BJP supporters viewing them as a robust defense against negative politics, while opposition parties have called the language divisive. The episode underscores the increasingly bitter tone of political discourse ahead of key national debates.
