Rahul Gandhi's 'Shakti' Slip: BJP latches on, Rocky Political Journey Amid Elections for Cong?

Rahul Gandhi's recent statement at the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra's finale in Mumbai sparked controversy. While attempting to criticise BJP's tactics, his mention of "Shakti" in Hindu dharma was perceived differently, leading to BJP using it against Congress and Rahul. Congress defended Gandhi, attributing his words to BJP's power through RSS and 'Manuvaad.' However, the incident highlights the importance of careful language in political discourse, especially during elections, to avoid unintended consequences and misinterpretations. #RahulGandhi #BJPvsCongress #LanguageMatters #HinduDharma #ShaktiRow ~HT.97~PR.282~

This Day in History: Martin Luther King Jr. Is Assassinated

This Day in History: , Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Is Assassinated. April 4, 1968. King was shot and killed as he stood on the second-floor balcony of the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, TN. The “apostle of nonviolence” had gone to Memphis in support of a sanitation workers' strike. Widely recognized as the most prominent face of the American Civil Rights Movement, Dr. King was just 39 years old. In a prophetic speech the night before his murder, King stated that, “I’ve seen the promised land. I may not get there with you.". Petty criminal James Earl Ray was arrested two months later and eventually pleaded guilty to King's assassination. After being sentenced to 99 years in prison, Ray recanted his confession. Questions of a conspiracy to assassinate Dr. King continue to linger. King's death sparked riots in more than 100 American cities. On April 9, tens of thousands of mourners lined the streets of Atlanta to pay their respects on the day King was laid to rest

This Day in History: Selma to Montgomery March Begins

This Day in History:, Selma to Montgomery March Begins. March 21, 1965. Led by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., between 3,000 and 8,000 marchers crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge out of Selma on their way to Montgomery. Over the next five days, they were protected by thousands of federalized Alabama National Guardsmen and soldiers. Their numbers would swell to around 25,000. At the state capitol, King would give his famous "How Long, Not Long" speech. The march came just days after the passage of the civil rights legislation known as the Voting Rights Act. The passage of the legislation followed two unsuccessful attempts at the march which ended in violence between police and the peaceful protestors. President Lyndon Johnson cited the violence, which had been broadcast on national television, as a turning point in American history. How long? Not long, because the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice, Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr
