TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday taunted the BJP with comments on the controversy surrounding Amit Shah’s son Jay alleging “state legal help” in his legal battle with a news portal.
“State legal help for Shah-Zada! Why this, why this Kolaveri Da?” Gandhi said in a tweet slightly twisting the line in a Tamil film song made famous a few years ago with its “Kolaveri Di”.
The Congress leader attached a press statement from web portal The Wire, titled “Jay Amit Shah attempts to Gag The Wire” with his tweet.
Gandhi’s fresh attack on the BJP came on a day the party asked the Congress to explain the alleged links between Congress President Sonia Gandhi’s son-in-law Robert Vadra and arms dealer Sanjay Bhandari.
The Congress has been raking up the issue of the spurt in the turnover of a company owned by Jay Shah from Rs 50,000 to Rs 80 crore “in a year”. The party has accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of being silent on the issue and sought an inquiry by sitting Supreme Court judges.
