“Bow your head in the Golden Temple too, or are you only following Sanatan Dharma,” is how ‘journalist’ Mrinal Pande, an integral part of Congress ecosystem mocked Bharatiya Janata Party leader Tajinder Bagga over his visit to a Hindu temple, furthering sowing the seeds of discord between the Hindu and Sikh communities. Notably, the Khalistanis are also infamous for indulging in similar antics.

It is notable that Khlistani secessionists, in an attempt to peddle their assumed supremacy, mock Sikhs who show reverence to Hindu Gods, even though Hindu Gods and Hindu theology form a crucial part of Sikh scriptures and verses.
BJP leader Tajinder Bagga was seen visiting the Mahakaal temple. He had shared the video with a caption that he was there to pray for his fellow contestant Shritika Arjun in Big Boss 18.
Pande who is the former editorial advisor of Congress mouthpiece ‘National Herald’ is infamous for making such ridiculous yet provocative statements. Last year Editor-in-Chief of ANI, Smita Prakash, slammed her for insinuating that she somehow lacked the spine of former Jammu and Kashmir Lt. Governor Satya Pal Malik. “The former editor of National Herald is talking about the spine. You can leave (the virtue signalling),” she hit out at Pande.
Apparently delighted by the news of the controversial doctor Kafeel Khan’s release on bail from Mathura jail, Pande, went on to compare him with Lord Krishna, in 2021. Comparing his release from Mathura jail to Lord Krishna’s escape from the jail where he was born, Pande insinuated that he too will bring the end of CM Yogi just like Lord Krishna had eliminated Kans.
She even made transphobic comments in 2020 when she responded to a twitter post of another controversial ‘krantikari’ journalist Punya Prasoon Bajpayee. PP Bajpayee, who had been thrown out of the job, had made a lewd comment asking people why does PM Modi clap frequently during his campaign speeches. In a hurry to mock Prime Minister Modi, the Congress journalist Mrinal Pande tweeted to ask whether PM Modi does that to garner votes of the “Kinnars”-the transgender community.
