In a recent display of disrespect towards Hindu traditions, Congress leader Pawan Khera has come to the defense of Mallikarjun Kharge's controversial comments on religious rituals. Kharge's remarks, which deride the significance of taking a dip in the Ganga as part of Sanatan Dharma, have been met with criticism for insulting the age-old Hindu practices.
