Posters show Rahul being feted by Jaish chief

| Wednesday | 13th March, 2019

And people of Amethi feel extremely bad because Rahul Gandhi represents them... as a well-wisher of Amethi, I decided to show my resentment through the poster. "Reasoning his act, Tewari said: "Rahul Gandhi has embarassed the people of India by showing respect to a terrorist. "It may be noted that while addressing booth workers in New Delhi, Rahul Gandhi used the suffix 'ji' while referring to the Jaish-e-Mohammad chief. "What's common between Pakistan and Rahul Gandhi? Their love for terrorist... " she stated.Congress leaders stated that Rahul Gandhi was being quoted out of context.

LUCKNOW: Posters attacking Congress President Rahul Gandhi for referring Jaish-e-Mohammad chief Azhar Masood with Hindi honorific 'Ji' were spotted in different parts of his parliamentary constituency Amethi on Wednesday.The poster, put up by a Bhartiya Janata Party Yuva Morcha worker Shubham Tewari, stated that Amethi didn't need an MP who addressed a terrorist with respectful suffixes. "Atankwadi ko ji kahe.. aiisa sansad amethi ko nahi chahiye," it read.It further stated, "Desh ke PM ka Apmaan Kare... Atankwadi ka samman kare aisa sansad Amethi ko nahi manzoor (Amethi cannot approve of a MP who insults the PM and pays respect to a terrorist)."Reasoning his act, Tewari said: "Rahul Gandhi has embarassed the people of India by showing respect to a terrorist. And people of Amethi feel extremely bad because Rahul Gandhi represents them... as a well-wisher of Amethi, I decided to show my resentment through the poster."It may be noted that while addressing booth workers in New Delhi, Rahul Gandhi used the suffix 'ji' while referring to the Jaish-e-Mohammad chief. Almost five hours after the slip, BJP used to the moment to attack Congress party president and questioned his nationalist feelings.Central minister Smriti Irani and Rahul's arch rival in Amethi immediately took a jibe from her twitter handle. "What's common between Pakistan and Rahul Gandhi? Their love for terrorist... " she stated.Congress leaders stated that Rahul Gandhi was being quoted out of context. "The BJP didn't read the sarcasm in Rahul Gandhi's words. Offended by our attack on them, they countered with their propaganda," said Deepak Singh, Congress MLC from Amethi.Congress spokesperson Anshu Awasthi added, "Rahul Gandhi also said that Jaish-e-Mohammand may be responsible for the Pulwama attack, but the BJP is to be blamed for the release of Masood Azhar ... Thus, BJP's hashtags against our president (such as #Rahullovesterrorists) is nothing but another attempt to divert public attention from real issues like farm crisis, unemployment, sufferings of the business community due to GST."
