· India · Times of India, Hindustan Times, LiveMint
Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra shared an emotional message of support for her son, Raihan Vadra, after more than 70 artworks were reportedly removed from his photography exhibition at Delhi's Bikaner House. The exhibition, titled "No Idea Is Final," faced objections over alleged political content, including photographs depicting youth protests in Delhi and two images featuring the national flag. Raihan stated that he refused to remove the national flag images and plans to display the complete collection at an alternative venue. The alleged censorship drew criticism from other Congress leaders, including Robert Vadra, Pawan Khera, and Karti Chidambaram. Khera alleged that 74 artworks, accounting for nearly half the exhibition, were taken down.
Why it matters
