This comes several BJP leaders earlier on Tuesday shared an alleged “Congress tookit” and alleged that the grand old party was trying to smear Prime Minister Narendra Modi and India.
The Congress later lashed out at the BJP over its move to release a purported Congress ‘toolkit’ with party national spokesperson Sunil Ahire stating the saffron party “shamelessly concocts forgeries” instead of providing relief “when our country is devastated by COVID”.
The Congress Party also lodged an FIR for forgery against BJP President J.P. Nadda and Patra over the “fake” toolkit shared by the ruling party at the Centre on “COVID-19 mismanagement” and “attributing it to AICC Research Department”.
