New Delhi:
A social media put up by a former Pakistani minister has sparked recent tensions between the BJP and the Congress. The put up from Ch Fawad Hussain featured excerpts from Congress chief Rahul Gandhi’s speech with the caption “Rahul on fire,” drawing sharp criticism from BJP leaders.
Amit Malviya, the BJP’s IT cell chief, took to social media to query the Congress’s affiliation with Pakistan, stating Mr Hussain’s earlier function in Imran Khan’s cupboard.Â
“Ch Fawad Hussain, who served in the Imran Khan cabinet, as Minister for Information and Broadcasting, is promoting Rahul Gandhi. Is the Congress planning to contest election in Pakistan?”
“From a manifesto, that has imprints of the Muslim league to a ringing endorsement, from across the border, Congress’s dalliance with Pakistan can’t get more obvious,” he added.

BJP nationwide spokesperson Shehzad Poonawala echoed related sentiments, accusing the Congress of getting a transparent alliance with Pakistan.Â
“Congress ka haath Pakistan ke saath,” Mr Poonawala posted. “Earlier Hafiz Saeed had said Congress is his favourite party. Mani Aiyer went to Pakistan for support to depose PM Modi! We remember Pakistan Zindabad slogans were raised recently by Congress leaders and BK Hariprasad openly batted for Pak. Time and again Congress leaders defended Pakistani terrorists too.”
