Radhika Khera’s Shocking Allegations Against Congress Leaders: Locked, Abused, Manhandled After Leaving Party
Radhika Khera said on Monday, one day after leaving the Congress, that several of her former party officials had physically and verbally harassed her in the state Congress headquarters in Chhattisgarh and had confined her in a room. On Sunday, Khera announced her resignation from the party, citing that she had been denied justice in the event due to criticism of her visit to the Lord Ram temple in Ayodhya. At a news conference today, she said that Congress has been under assault against her ever since she placed Lord Ram’s banner at my house. Is it improper to discuss your religion? I was occasionally getting insulted. “They knocked on my doors late at night in a drunken state when media chairman Sushil Gupta offered me alcohol during Rahul Gandhi’s Nyay Yatra in Chhattisgarh,” the woman recalled.
“I went to speak with Sushil Anand Shukla at the state congress office on the 30th evening, and he yelled at me and mistreated me.” They imprisoned me inside while he and the other two state spokespeople mistreated me. When I yelled, the door remained closed. I was treated roughly. I even protested to Congressman Mahamantri, but nobody would listen,” she continued. For the current Lok Saha elections, Khera was dispatched by the All India Congress Committee (AICC) from Delhi to serve as the state’s coordinator of communication and media for Chhattisgarh.

Significantly, party sources stated that on April 30 at the Raipur party headquarters, Khera and Sushil Anand Shukla, the chairwoman of the Chhattisgarh Congress’ communication wing, got into a heated debate about senior politician Pawan Khera’s scheduled visit the next day. Khera was seen complaining about being humiliated in a video that went viral, allegedly of her. As Khera noted in her letter of resignation, there has always been hostility toward religious backing, a well-established reality from ancient times. “From Ravana and Kansa to Hiranyakashyap, examples of this can be found.” Some people are currently against individuals who use Lord Shri Ram’s name in the same manner, she continued.
