False claim by BJP leaders"},"content":{"rendered":"

A video of Congress MP Rahul Gandhi is being circulated widely on social media. A number of BJP leaders are sharing the video claiming that Rahul Gandhi refused to wear a turban in the absence of cameras.<\/span><\/p>\n

The national in-charge of the BJP’s information technology department, Amit Malviya, tweeted this video with the same claim. Malviya accused the Congress party of exploiting religious sentiments for political gain. (<\/span>Archived link<\/span><\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n

Everything is choreographed in Bharat Jodo Yatra including who should be called in to tie the turban and its colour. What is offensive though is Rahul Gandhi refusing to wear the turban when there were no cameras\u2026Exploiting religious sentiments for politics is in Congress\u2019s DNA. pic.twitter.com\/PFTr5P68r4<\/a><\/p>\n
