Congress Takes A Dig At BJP Through ‘Khaki’ Shorts Tweet; Saffron Party Retaliates

New Delhi: Congress and BJP have started trading of barbs after the former posted a picture of a burning pair of RSS shorts on Twitter.

Bharatiya Janata Party Yuva Morcha President Tejasvi Surya said the picture depicted that the fire Congress has stoked in the past has burned their political fortunes in the country.

Earlier today Congress tweeted a picture of fire-lit ‘Khakhi’ shorts and wrote, “To free the country from shackles of hate and undo the damage done by BJP-RSS. Step by step, we will reach our goal”.

The Congress has slammed the BJP-RSS through its tweet that showed burning ‘Khaki’ shorts, in wake of the Bharat Jodo Yatra. “To free the country from shackles of hate and undo the damage done by BJP-RSS. Step by step, we will reach our goal”, read the INC tweet.

Tejasvi Surya was quick to lament the tweet saying, “Fires they lit in the past have burnt them in most of India. The remaining members in Rajasthan and Chattisgarh will also reduce to ashes very soon”.

Earlier, BJP had also attacked the Congress on social media, claiming that Rahul Gandhi, who has been raising the issue of inflation during the ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’, was himself wearing a T-shirt worth Rs 41,257 and that too of a foreign brand when Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been leading the mission of ‘Make-in-India’.
