A case in point is the raging controversy regarding the slogan “Bharat Mata ki Jai”, which is not being allowed to die down. Not letting go of the controversy, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal accused BJP supporters of gundagiri and forcing people to chant “Bharat Mata ki Jai”. Just when the issue was simmering down, Ramdev proclaimed that he would sever heads in thousands if people refused to chant “Bharat Mata ki Jai”. Some are reignited, refuelled and again made live by some to keep themselves relevant in the media, unmindful of consequences . It all started with the RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat’s comment, echoed by Baba Ramdev, Sadhvi Prachi, and countered by Asaduddin Owaisi.
