New Delhi: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) IT cell head Amit Malviya on Tuesday hit out at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi saying that the Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha did not say anything against Veer Savarkar during the Maharashtra polls, but started spreading venom against him as soon as the Assembly elections ended.
Pointing out that PM Narendra Modi had predicted the same in campaigns during Assembly, he shared clips of the former and Rahul Gandhi and wrote, “Rahul Gandhi is vile and predictable. He didn’t mention Veer Savarkar even once throughout the Maharashtra election and started spewing venom soon after the rout. Prime Minister Modi had predicted this. Credit to the people of Maharashtra for showing the abusive dynast his place.”
What PM Modi said on Congress
