What did Congress leader Salman Khurshid say?
Senior lawyer and Congress leader Salman Khurshid said, we are very saddened by what the PM says in his speeches. He said about our manifesto that it is a bundle of lies, we are very saddened by this. You can disagree with a party, you can argue about it, you can dissect it, but for a national level party which has been involved in our national movement to say that it has lies in its manifesto, We are saddened by what Pulinda will write.

Khurshid said, we understand that the PM has no right to say such a thing. This matter is before the Election Commission. I have made a special request to them to take this seriously and take action on it.

What did Congress leader Pawan Kheda say?
Meanwhile, Congress leader Pawan Kheda said, we raised many issues, we lodged a strong objection to the way the PM gave status to the Muslim League in our manifesto. We also expressed our views on PM’s hoardings in universities. Elections have been declared. The ministry is currently a caretaker government and they do not have the right to impose such restrictions on freedom of expression.
