NEW DELHI: Amid acerbic reaction from BJP netas to Rahul Gandhi’s tweet about “vote chori”, Congress Friday alleged members of the governing party are seeking a civil war by threatening violence and using unparliamentary words against opposition netas. It asked BJP to disapprove of the comments from its netas and lodge cases against them, else their remarks would be construed as being made at the instance of the PM and home minister.Congress spokesman and deputy leader of opposition in RS Pramod Tiwari said, “Is BJP seeking to incite civil war in the country? What are its netas saying?” Former BJP MP from UP and senior office-bearer Subrat Pathak said if people come out on the streets like in Nepal, they will burn down the houses of Rahul and SP chief Akhilesh Yadav. He also said if people (like Gen Z) come out in India, they will be chased in the streets.“This is the language being used for the leader of opposition in LS and a former CM. These are not good signs for the country, that senior netas of the governing party should be seeking to plunge the country into internecine violence. If the govt has any moral authority, it should lodge a case against such leaders,” Tiwar said.
