BJP blasts Cong over tweet on CM Chauhan

BHOPAL, Oct 11:The BJP in Madhya Pradesh has lashed out at the Congress for allegedly tweeting a picture of Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan with a caption `Mama ka Shraddh’, even as the opposition party denied that it had posted any such tweet.
Shraddh is a ritual performed by Hindus to pay homage to their ancestors during the `Pitru Paksha’ period which is currently underway.
Chouhan’s son Kartikeya Singh on Tuesday shared on X a screenshot of an alleged post tweeted by the handle @WithCongress. It carried a picture of CM Chouhan with the line `Mama ka Shraddh’ and noted that the BJP announced ticket for Chouhan for the assembly elections during the period of Shraddh.
“I also feel pity for you people, how low the Congressmen have fallen today. Do you think God will forgive you for this?” Kartikeya said.
The chief minister himself tweeted about the post on Wednesday, stating, “What can be expected from Congress which always abuses Sanatan Dharma. If the power-hungry Congress has to perform Shraddh, then it should perform this ritual for its frustrated thinking and bad values. (PTI)
