The Congress leaders are attempting to visit Sambhal amid restrictions barring the entry of outsiders to the area until December 10, which were imposed after violence erupted over a survey of the Mughal-era Shahi Jama Masjid.
In the petition, Congress leaders called for directions by the apex court, ordering the state governments and lower courts to refrain from enforcing survey orders that, according to them, risk disrupting “communal harmony” and cited provisions of the Places of Worship Act of 1991.
In the viral video, a 'fraudster' identified as Syed Shuja is heard saying that he could manipulate election results in 281 out of 288 seats in the Maharashtra Vidhan Sabha elections.
The Congress party weaponised language politics during the Karnataka Vidhan Sabha elections. However, playing with people's insecurities seems to have now backfired on its leaders and workers.
When the Maharashtra Assembly Election results are compared to the Lok Sabha elections held just five months ago, the victory becomes even more impressive.
