Shortly after BJP leaders shared a video of Rahul Gandhi at a nightclub in Nepal and mocked the Congress leader for partying abroad, the Congress hit back by asking whether it was now a crime to attend a wedding celebration of a friend.
Congress leader Randeep Singh Surjewala stated, "Rahul Gandhi went to a friendly country Nepal to participate in a private marriage function of a friend who also happens to be a journalist. Last I checked, having family and friends, and attending marriage ceremonies, is a matter of our culture and civilisation."
Earlier, BJP leaders including Union Minister Kiren Rijiju and the party's IT department incharge Amit Malviya had commented on a video showing Rahul Gandhi at a nightclub.
While Malviya wrote, "He is at a nightclub at a time when his party is exploding," Rijiju commented, "Regular parties, vacations, holidays, pleasure trips, private foreign visits etc. are nothing new to the nation now."
