The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Thursday (October 22, 2026) reiterated its accusation that Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi was attempting to create anarchy in India and weaken constitutional institutions in collusion with foreign organisations.

At a press conference, BJP spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia cited a Fox News Digital report titled ‘Global Chaos Inc’ and alleged that attempts to bring about regime change in France and several other countries through unrest were linked to protests in India. He said the report identified 101 organisations across many countries, described the network as part of a “red-green ecosystem,” and named two organisations: Progressive International and Indian Alliance Paris.

Mr. Bhatia sought explanations from former Congress president Sonia Gandhi and Mr. Gandhi regarding their meeting with a Progressive International delegation on April 28, 2025, in Delhi.

Mr. Bhatia alleged that Mr. Gandhi was “presenting a model of anarchy, disorder, and treachery.”

He added, “A report published in a reputed newspaper today has brought to light the treacherous links to foreign agencies.

The BJP leader also criticised Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut over a recent social media post concerning unrest in Albania.
