NEW DELHI: The BJP on Thursday hit back at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for his liar jibe at the Prime Minister, dubbing him as “joothon ka sardar” (master of lies) and saying detention camps in Assam were set up when the Congress was in power both at the Centre and the State.
In a tweet earlier in the day, the former Congress president had alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was lying to the country on the issue of detention camps in Assam.
BJP spokesperson Sambhit Patra alleged that after apologising to the Supreme Court on the Rafale issue, Rahul Gandhi is now spreading lies on the detention centres.
He asserted that Prime Minister Modi had only said there is no such detention camp in which Muslims of India will be placed after NRC. (AGENCIES)
