In Chhattisgarh, the fight that started on social media reached the police station, where the video of BJP candidate Sunil Soni kissing Maulana went viral, due to which politics got heated and Congress took advantage of the opportunity and targeted BJP fiercely in a press conference. Whereas BJP and Sunil Soni himself have termed the viral video as AI generated and have accused Congress of making fake videos.
Sunil Soni is a well-known face in Chhattisgarh politics. Congress’s Akash Sharma also has good influence among the youth. On one hand, there is a poster war on Congress candidate Akash Sharma, while on the other hand, many videos related to BJP candidate Sunil Soni go viral. It is not possible for a video of a candidate of any party to be released at the time of elections and there is no politics on it, and now there is a huge political uproar over Sunil Soni’s video as well.
“Congress has become issueless”
Sunil Soni has accused him of trying to tarnish his image by editing the video. He has also lodged a complaint in the police station regarding this matter. Chhattisgarh Deputy Chief Minister Arun Sao targeted Congress over the video and said that Congress has become issue-less and is struggling with frustration, hence it is doing character assassination. If seen, often on social media, BJP was seen dominating Congress in every aspect, but in the by-elections, Congress is dominating BJP.
Many videos are going viral
PCC Chief Deepak Baij said that there is still a lot of time for the by-elections. Now this video of Sunil Soni is coming out. Don’t know what will happen till the elections. During the election campaign, many types of videos are being uploaded on social media and are also going viral. Efforts are being made to convey the message to the public through videos and efforts are being made to tarnish each other’s image, but it is also important to take care that political decorum is maintained between the video and poster war.
