Delhi Police are investigating a complaint alleging that Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi disrupted the singing of “Vande Mataram” during an Independence Day event. The complainters cite video and media reports as evidence. The police are examining alleged gestures and remarks connected to the incident. As of now, sources say an FIR has not yet been filed, and the matter remains under inquiry.
Both reports place the development in a wider legal and political context. The complaint is reported to have been filed days after a new law criminalising insults to the national song came into effect. Outlets describe the case as part of broader reactions following the Independence Day performance, with authorities focused on whether the conduct amounts to disruption or insult under the recently enacted provisions.
