Karnataka Congress leaders condemned the detention of Rahul Gandhi and other opposition leaders. They stated that suppressing democratic dissent by detaining opposition figures is shameful. The government responded to young Indians with force and police action against elected representatives. This action reflects a government increasingly afraid of peaceful democratic protests. The Congress party will continue to stand for justice and the rights of every citizen.
