Even if they're in two opposite ends of India? Also, I don't want to take sides, but all other parties rallied during elections so why single out BJP? Once again, I'm strictly against these gatherings and I firmly believe that they should be banned without delay but this selective outrage is rather obvious that the agenda or the narrative is something else altogether.

There very well could be a selective outrage, but I'm almost as far removed from this as possible. HN as a groupmind usually scolds the official government, because the assumption is that they have the most effective control over behavior of people.

I simply said that Modi/BJP is responsible wherever they are.

Of course the other parties are responsible too.

And we can simply apply the Spiderman rule: more power, more responsibility. Modi is the PM, BJP is the ruling party. (And yes, of course in some states BJP's influence is lesser than some other party's. And there the responsibility of that particular party is greater.)

On top of all this it also depends what was the rhetoric of the other parties. Were they also loudly claiming victory over the pandemic? Naturally Modi trapped himself into a bit of a corner with that. (Even if facists can usually disregard/bend reality, but we shall see how the electorate takes this dissonance.)
