NEW DELHI: On a day in which Congress was constrained to gag its netas from making controversial remarks on Pahalgam massacre , BJP stepped up its attack on the party pressing its chief Mallikarjun Kharge and Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi to specifically respond to the claims of their colleagues that the jihadis had not religiously profiled the victims before killing them.
With a Congress neta in Maharashtra seconding Karnataka minister R B Timmapur's comment claim that terrorists had not marked non-Muslims out, BJP's Ravi Shankar Prasad said, "This is the height of insensitivity. Are they saying that wives of victims who saw their spouses being asked about their faith before they were gunned down, are not speaking truth? Kharge and Rahul Gandhi owe an explanation for this irresponsible behaviour."
"We need to know that Congress's call for national solidarity was not a mere formality," he added.
