Ayyappa Sangamam Controversy: BJP and CPI(M) Clash in Kerala

The upcoming Global Ayyappa Sangamam in Kerala has become a flashpoint between the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPI(M)), escalating political tensions in the state.

Political Accusations Fly High

Leaders from both parties are engaged in a heated war of words, each accusing the other of exploiting the religious event for political gain. The accusations are adding fuel to an already sensitive situation and raising concerns about the potential impact on the Sangamam itself.

What’s at Stake?

The heart of the controversy seems to lie in the perceived politicization of a significant religious gathering. The implications of this political tug-of-war could affect not only the Sangamam but also the broader political landscape in Kerala.
