The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has slammed the Congress party, calling it a PPP – Pakistan-Friendly Party. The saffron party’s remark came after veteran Congress leader Mani Shankar Aiyar attended an iftar party at the Pakistan High Commission organised to celebrate the nation’s national day.
The BJP attacked Congress saying, “It is no longer the Indian Congress. It has become PPP – a Pakistan-friendly party."
According to official sources, no government representative attended the event.
BJP’s Shehzad Poonawalla said, “In ‘Modi-Virodh’ they are indulging in ‘Desh-Virodh'"
BJP spokesperson Pradeep Bhandari said that “Congress loves Pakistan". “This makes it clear that whether it’s Mani Shankar Aiyar or any Congress leader, they have a love for Pakistan in their hearts," Bhandari said.
