Continuing its attack on the Opposition Congress, the BJP on Wednesday said Rahul Gandhi is mainly engaged in a political fight on Twitter.

Senior BJP leader and Union Minister Prakash Javadekar said the Congress might have won many battles online but the BJP continues to be the people’s first choice.

The minister said, “Rahul Gandhi is only on Twitter. His politics is confined to tweets. If you have mass support, then tweets are a symbol of strength, but doing politics through tweets is political bankruptcy.”

Javadekar cited the BJP’s victories in the local body elections in Maharashtra and Gujarat. He also pointed out the party’s success in Gujarat by-elections.

Responding to a query on the UP chief minister’s decision to build a statue of Lord Ram on the Sarayu river’s banks amid an agrarian crisis, Javadekar said the state government has enough funds to waive farmers’ loans and take care of welfare schemes.

He also hit out at the Congress government in Karnataka, accusing it of creating a wedge on communal lines in the state.
