Pakistan's former Minister for Information and Broadcasting, Chaudhry Fawad Hussain, stirred the political pot with a few choice words of praise for Rahul Gandhi on a social media platform, prompting the BJP to corner the Congress. The BJP retorted with a barbed query, 'Is Congress planning to contest elections in Pakistan? From a manifesto resembling the Muslim League's, to resounding support across the border, Congress' alliance with Pakistan couldn't be clearer.'

Targeting Congress' international affiliations, BJP National Spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla posted, 'A Pakistani leader, who has often spewed venom against India, is now endorsing Rahul and Congress. It recalls Hafiz Saeed's favoritism for Congress and Mani Shankar Aiyar's plea to Pakistan for support to overthrow PM Modi. Congress leaders have recently been heard chanting 'Pakistan Zindabad', and B.K. Hariprasad even advocated for Pakistan openly.'
Poonawalla continued, 'Time and again, Congress leaders have defended Pakistani terrorists. Today the connection is explicit—Congress hand in hand with Pakistan! Their manifesto hints at the Muslim League's legacy up to the creation of Pakistan itself! Pakistan's statement on INDIA coalition came a day after their call for 'vote jihad'.' PM Narendra Modi had recently characterized the Congress manifesto as 'stamped by the Muslim League' at his election rallies.
