A controversy has erupted in India following Prime Minister Narendra Modi's assertion that Mahatma Gandhi was not globally recognized until the release of the 1982 film 'Gandhi'. This statement has drawn sharp criticism from members of the Congress party, including prominent figures such as Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra.
Rahul Gandhi, leveraging his background in political science, took a dig at Modi's remarks, suggesting that only someone without a grasp of political history would make such a claim.
The Congress party has framed the current Lok Sabha election as a contest between the ideologies of Mahatma Gandhi and his assassin, Nathuram Godse, further intensifying the political debate.
