BJP is just a tenant, not owner of democracy: Congress

Pawan Khera (File)

New Delhi: The Congress on Tuesday said the ruling BJP is just a tenant and not the owner of democracy. Congress asserted that holding the government to account does not amount to criticising the nation.

Congress spokesperson and chief of the party's media and publicity department Pawan Khera also said that the BJP was resorting to "theatrics" and "drama" to divert the country's attention from the Adani issue.

"Rahul Gandhi is demanding answers from the Prime Minister on the deeds of his friend and a worried BJP is trying to enact new dramas to divert attention from the Adani issue," Khera told reporters.
    
Taking a jibe at BJP, Khera said the party will be seen as "Jai Chands" in history and claimed its ideological forefathers were known apologisers of the British, after the BJP attacked Rahul Gandhi as "Mir Jafar". (with PTI inputs)
