Samajwadi Party MP Akhilesh Prasad Singh has landed himself in yet another controversy, this time for allegedly making casteist remarks against two Indian Air Force officers, Lieutenant Colonel AK Bharti and Flight Lieutenant Vyomika Singh. The incident, which has sparked nationwide outrage, has been described as deeply disturbing and indicative of the entrenched casteism in our society.
The officers, who were recently married, were reportedly attending a formal event when they were accosted by the Samajwadi Party MP. The incident gained traction after a video of the altercation went viral on social media. In the video, the MP can be seen and heard making derogatory remarks towards the officers, seemingly based on their caste. The verbal attack was met with shock and disappointment from those present at the event, as well as from the general public and officials across the country.
This is not the first time the SP MP has been involved in such an incident. Earlier this year, Singh was suspended from the party for three months after he allegedly orchestrated a violent altercation involving his supporters and a police officer.
The incident highlights the insidious nature of casteism that continues to plague our society and the ingrained prejudice that persists even among those in positions of power. It is important to hold such individuals accountable for their actions to ensure an inclusive and respectful environment for all. As we continue to strive for a more equitable society, incidents like these serve as a painful reminder of the challenges that still lie ahead.
