Controversy at the BJP’s ‘Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra’: A Viral Video Raises Questions

Date:

In a recent incident that has sparked controversy and debate, a video from Ghaziabad’s Modinagar area, specifically in the Bhojpur locality, has gone viral, showcasing a woman performing an obscene dance at the BJP’s ‘Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra’. This occurrence has raised serious questions about the nature of political events and the boundaries of public decency.

The Viral Video: A Questionable Performance

The video in question, which captured the public’s attention, shows a woman dancing to the Bollywood song ‘Chhath pe soya tha behnoi’ from the film ‘Karan-Arjun’. This performance, deemed obscene by many, took place on stage during a political event, which was meant to be a platform for promoting developmental policies and public welfare schemes.

The Event’s Objective and Local Reaction

The ‘Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra’ is a campaign initiated by the BJP, flagged off by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on November 15, 2023, from Khunti, Jharkhand. It aims to raise awareness about various welfare schemes and to encourage public participation in the spirit of “Jan Bhagidari” for the complete saturation of these schemes. However, the dance performance, as reported by local sources, was allegedly organized to attract more crowds to the event.

The Dance Show: A Controversial Attraction

Held on December 30, the dance show took place in Shakurpur village of Bhojpur, Ghaziabad. Notably, the event was attended by prominent local figures, including the village head, his wife, and the local MP Satya Pal Singh. The presence of these functionaries raises questions about the appropriateness of the performance in such a setting.

Contradictory Claims and Official Statements

While the video clearly shows the dance performance taking place, officers and event organizers have refuted claims that this occurred while the dignitaries were present on stage. An official statement suggested that the event adhered to proper protocols and that the controversial dance might have taken place after the guests had departed.

The Implications of the Incident

This incident brings to the forefront several critical issues, including the use of entertainment in political events, the definition of obscenity in public performances, and the responsibility of organizers in maintaining decorum at public gatherings. The contrast between the intended purpose of the ‘Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra’ and the nature of the viral video highlights a disconnect that has sparked public debate and criticism.
