A tweet by All India Radio (AIR) targeting Rahul Gandhi for his remarks about RSS people having killed Gandhi – which have landed him in court on defamation charges – sparked a row on Thursday night with Congress dubbing it as “unpardonable” and “shameful”, and asking Information and Broadcasting Minister M Venkaiah Naidu whether the public broadcaster was being allowed to propagate the saffron agenda.

The tweet read, “Why he got scared earlier. How he became daring to defame #RSS. He should stick to comments #RahulrattlesRSS.”
