A document circulating on the social media -- with Congress party symbols and markings on it -- was shared and cited by BJP leaders as an alleged call to arms by the Congress to its supporters. The Congress, however, maintained that the documents on Covid wereconcocted, and its leaders slammed the BJP, calling it “Bikul Jhooth Party”. The BJP attack on Tuesday was led by party president JP Nadda, who accused the Congress of “dividing society” and “spewing venom”. If you had invested half that time and energy, India would not be struggling this much,” Congress leader Pavan Khera said. The purported Congress document also mentioned mobilising “former civil servants to raise questions about PM CARES Fund” and to “aggressively question or embarrass” celebrities wanting to donate to it.
