00:26own history of personal attacks.
00:28From attacks on political leaders to barbs aimed at families, the question still remains,
00:33where does political criticism end and personal abuse begin?
00:37What about public discourse and language?

02:10From Delhi to Patna, Lucknow, Jammu and Bengaluru, BJP workers took to the streets demanding an apology.
02:42A BJP worker has also filed a police complaint against the Congress Chief, but the Congress
02:48isn't backing down.
02:50Its argument, the BJP has repeatedly targeted Rahul Gandhi's father and grandfather and
02:57cannot expect the opposition to stay silent.
03:22BJP likes to make issues out of non-issues.
03:26Before commenting on what happened yesterday, they need to first understand how it happened.
03:34And you, as all of you are aware, it's general how people talk, whether it's in any language.
03:42If you file FIR, if 100 people come and troll us, nothing is going to change.

04:08Your dad may come back above.
04:11This will not be able to come from you.
04:16And the list of baabs goes back years.
04:18Over the years, the Congress has been called Khoni Panja,
04:21Sonia Gandhi has been likened to Jersey cow and Rahul Gandhi a hybrid calf different elections
04:29different battles but the same question where does political criticism end and personal abuse
04:37begin when leaders drag parents and families into political battles who draws the line with Rahul
04:45Gautam and Piyush Misha Bureau report India today because when it comes to public discourse language in public life there
04:57are no holy cows when it comes to political parties practically every party is the same so can one party
05:04take a moral high ground over the other and shouldn't there be basic levels of decency when it comes to
05:10public discourse that's what we are
