Poster war intensifies between Congress and AAP after Rahul Gandhi's remark
The friction between the Congress and the Aam Aadmi Party has further escalated following Rahul Gandhi's remark about Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann. Both parties have targeted each other on social media by releasing sarcastic posters against each other's top leaders.
Following the statement given by Rahul Gandhi regarding Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, the war of words between the Aam Aadmi Party and the Congress has moved from the rally stage to social media. Both sides are now launching sharp attacks targeting each other's main leaders.
The Aam Aadmi Party shared a poster of Rahul Gandhi on its official X handle, with 'Pappu' written on his face and taking a jibe by mentioning his old statement about turning potatoes into gold.
In response, Congress Secretary Srinivas BV shared a picture of Arvind Kejriwal on X. In this, Kejriwal was shown coming out after tearing a poster while wearing khaki shorts resembling the RSS uniform, a white shirt, and a black cap, and calling AAP the 'B-team' of the BJP.
Meanwhile, other Congress leaders also launched severe attacks on the state government at the Sangrur rally. Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge alleged that the money collected in Punjab is being sent to Delhi. Former Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi and Partap Singh Bajwa also raised questions regarding the functioning of the government.
This controversy started when Rahul Gandhi, during the Insaf rally in Sangrur, referred to Lok Sabha days and accused Bhagwant Mann of consuming alcohol. Reacting to this, AAP Delhi unit chief Saurabh Bharadwaj termed Rahul Gandhi's remark as low-level politics and accused him of intentionally targeting Punjab.
