NEW DELHI: With increasing attacks by the governing Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on India’s first prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru, the Congress chose his 133rd birth anniversary on Monday to defend him and “expose every lie” being spread about him, particularly over his Kashmir policy.
From the BJP, Union law minister Kiren Rijiju has been on the forefront to attack Nehru’s policy on the merger of Kashmir with India.
