Srinagar: Hours after Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) took a jibe at Indian National Congress president Rahul Gandhi, for not attending the meetings of Parliamentary Standing Committee on Defence, the congress party accused BJP of resorting to “cheap distractions and stunts” to “manage headlines” amid India-China faceoff.
The opposition party also said that had the BJP government spent its energy in fighting China and supporting the armed forces, it would not have to “lie” and “mislead” the country on the Chinese transgressions at the border.
The Congress party responded after BJP chief JP Nadda took a dig at Rahul Gandhi who has been criticising BJP over the border stand-off.
Earlier in a day, BJP said that Rahul Gandhi “has not attended” a single meeting of Parliament’s standing committee on defence but continues to “demoralise” the nation and question the valour of armed forces.
“Rahul Gandhi does not attend a single meeting of Standing Committee on Defence. But sadly, he continues to demoralise the nation, question the valour of our armed forces and do everything that a responsible opposition leader should not do,” BJP president J P Nadda wrote on his twitter handle.
