The Congress on May 14 alleged that the BJP was not able to come to terms with the decisive verdict against it in Karnataka and was "manufacturing lies" and indulging in politics of polarisation.
The Congress on May 13 made a stunning comeback in the state, ousting the BJP from its lone southern citadel with a comfortable majority in a morale booster win.
In a tweet, Congress general secretary in-charge communications Jairam Ramesh said, “Not able to come to terms with the resoundingly decisive verdict in favour of Congress from all sections of society in Karnataka, BJP’s online hate factory is working overtime to manufacture lies.” “No doubt inspired by PM’s politics of hate and polarisation. Desperation of sick minds!” he said.
