BJP conducted a press conference in New Delhi on September 13, where party spokesperson Sambit Patra slammed the INDIA bloc, referring to it as the ‘AHCC’ (Anti-Hindu Coordination Committee). Further, he commented on the meeting called by the INDIA bloc on September 13 at Sharad Pawar's residence in New Delhi, claiming that there is no cooperation and coordination among the alliance's members and that the agenda of the meeting is to discuss various ways to abolish Hinduism. Furthermore, he chastised the alliance's leaders for equating Hinduism with illnesses like Corona, leprosy, and AIDS and labeling it a global threat. “Today (AHCC) Anti-Hindu Coordination Committee meeting is called in Mumbai at Sharad Pawar's home. They will also discuss seat sharing. But before the coordination, the non-coordination and non-cooperation has started... This is not a meeting of campaign or seat sharing... Their only aim is to abolish Hinduism... The meeting is on the same topic... They called Hinduism dengue and malaria, corona, leprosy, and AIDS. They compare Hinduism with such diseases. They called it a world menace”, said Sambit Patra.
