NEW DELHI: Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge 's remark that the BJP leadership would have been languishing in jail if Congress had got just 20 more seats in the Lok Sabha polls has drawn an aggressive response from BJP, with former I&B minister Anurag Thakur accusing him of harbouring an "intolerant and dictatorial mindset ".
"The mask of love for the Constitution has slipped and the wannabe dictator has dropped the disguise because of the arrogant assumption that they won the polls. He is from the same set who went around swearing by the Constitution and hurling lies against BJP. Now, he has no qualms in hurling threats of jailing his political opponents," Thakur said.
"His assumption is wrong because Congress finished far behind BJP. But make no mistake about the mindset. It is the same that had imposed Emergency , instigated killings of Sikhs and generated ethnic conflicts just to stay in power," Thakur said as he mocked the Congress chief for the threat the latter issued in J&K.
