TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ The Congress and BJP on Tuesday exchanged barbs after the video of Rahul Gandhi in a Kathmandu nightclub party went viral. Both the parties were attacking each other over the video and the Congress raked up Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Pakistan.
Law Minister Kiren Rijiju retweeted the video and said, “Regular Parties, Vacations, Holidays, Pleasure Trips, Private Foreign Visits etc are nothing new to the nation now. As a private citizen there’s no issue at all but when an MP, a permanent boss of a national political party who keeps preaching others…”As the barbs against Rahul continued, the Congress responded by taking a jibe at the Prime Minister and saying that he was not an “uninvited guest like the Prime Minister when he visited Pakistan”.
The Congress said Rahul Gandhi is in Nepal to attend the wedding of a journalist friend. Congress General Secretary Randeep Singh Surjewala said, “Do let me know so that we can change our status & civilizational practices of attending marriages of our friends & family members. “Rahul Gandhi hasn’t gone to Pakistan as an uninvited guest like PM Modi to cut a cake with Nawaz Sharif, and we know what happens in Pathankot,” Congress spokesperson Randeep Surjewala said at a news briefing.
