Unfortunate that Congress netas echoing Pak leaders at such a juncture: BJP

NEW DELHI: BJP on Sunday hit out at Congress over Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah’s “no need for war with Pakistan” remark and the statement of Karnataka minister R B Timmapur disputing the account that terrorists identified the victims by their faith before killing them.
“The entire country wants retaliation against those responsible for terror attacks. PM Narendra Modi articulated that feeling by vowing to pursue the attackers and their masterminds till the ends of the earth. It is so unfortunate that leaders of Congress should be echoing Pakistan’s leaders at such a juncture. Siddaramaiah ji has only repeated what the foreign minister, defence minister and home minister of Pakistan had said earlier. Why should there be such a convergence of thoughts? Why Congress leaders have suddenly become the darlings of Pakistan’s media?” BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi said, demanding an explanation from the Congress leadership.
