New Delhi: Congress chief Shashi Tharoor condemned Sambit Patra for a jibe at Rahul Gandhi in his tweet on September 20. Tharoor tweeted, “Is there no low to which BJP spokesmen won’t sink?” This was in reply to Sambitra Patra’s tweet over an image of Congress chief Rahul Gandhi during which he was strolling within the Bharat Jodo Yatra together with a lady little one sporting a hijab. The Bharatiya Janata Party’s spokesperson, Sambit Patra, tweeted “when votes are accounted for on religious grounds, then it is called appeasement.”
Is there no low to which BJP spokesmen will not sink? She is a little bit little one & too younger to be a part of any vote financial institution: please spare her out of your small-mindedness! What @RahulGandhi is doing is an easy respectable gesture in the direction of a child. BJP, study to look past folks’s religion; we do. https://t.co/y4WiXJTCkA
