The Congress party faced criticism for its remarks on Indian cricketer Rohit Sharma, drawing flak from various quarters. The controversy erupted when Congress leader Rajiv Tyagi made a comment on Rohit Sharma during a TV debate, which was perceived as derogatory by many. The party found itself in the middle of a social media storm with people demanding an apology for the insensitive remark. The incident put the Congress in a defensive position, with party members engaging in damage control measures. The backlash from the public and cricket fans forced the Congress to clarify its stance and distance itself from the remarks made by Tyagi. This incident comes at a time when the Congress is already facing challenges on various fronts, making it vulnerable to such controversies. The party is now left fire-fighting to contain the damage caused by the ill-advised comment on the popular cricketer. The episode serves as a reminder of the importance of choosing words carefully, especially in the age of social media where a single comment can quickly escalate into a full-blown crisis. The Congress will need to address this issue promptly to prevent any further damage to its reputation.
