VARANASI: Uttar Pradesh Congress president Ajay Rai on Sunday criticised the central govt's "big talk and no action" against perpetrators of the Pahalgam terror attack , saying that they purchased Rafale fighter jets , but those are lying in hangars with "nimbu mirchi" (lemons and chillies) hanging on them.
Displaying a toy plane with Rafale written on it and with lemons and chillies hanging on it, Ajay Rai said, " Terrorist activities have increased in the country, and people are suffering from it. Our youth lost their lives in the Pahalgam terror attack... But this govt, which talks a lot, says that they will crush terrorists - they brought Rafale, but they are in their hangars having chillies and lemons hanging in them. When will they take action against terrorists, those who support them, and their backers?"
BJP neta CR Kesavan condemned the "reprehensible" action by the Congress neta, which he said was "trying to lower the morale and resolve of our armed forces."
"The Congress Party and its leaders are being disloyal to India and our people, and the Congress leaders are deliberately trying to defame and demoralise our brave armed forces. The deplorable statements by Ajay Rai, UP Congress chief, from where Rahul Gandhi is MP, are most condemnable. Congress leaders are reprehensible, repeat offenders who are repeatedly dishonourably trying to lower the morale and resolve of our armed forces. But the Congress party's sinister ploy will not be successful..." Kesavan said.
