The Congress party has deleted its social media post in which it had allegedly targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi and made a ‘Gayab’ jibe against him.
The Bhratiya Janata Party (BJP) and its leader had condemned the act and attacked the grand old party, alleging that the Congress party was signalling Pakistan that they stand with them in the Pahalgam terror attack of April 22.
Congress had posted a picture on the social media platform X after PM Modi was absent from the all-party meeting to address the Pahalgam attack, which claimed 26 lives and injured several others.

Congress in the now deleted post, had attached a picture of a kurta pajama with the word ‘Gayab’ (Missing) and wrote, “At the time of ‘responsibility’ – Missing”, in Hindi.
Later, Congress MP Jairam Ramesh, talking to ANI, said that PM Modi was not present at the all-party meeting and that he should participate in the discussions in Parliament.
Although Congress has deleted the post, it had already gone viral on social media and was also shared by former Pakistan Minister Fawad Ahmed Hussain Chaudhry on X.
The saffron party also launched an attack on Congress after the poster was shared. BJP leader Gaurav Bhatia alleged that the Congress party is signalling Pakistan that they stand with them in this terror attack and said that this is a ‘sinister and poisonous’ design trying to weaken India’s integrity.
As per ANI, Bhatia said, “There is a national political party that stays among us, but if we call them Lashkar-e-Pakistan Congress, it won’t be wrong. This image of PM Narendra Modi has been tweeted by the social media handle of Congress. A strong message has been given to Pakistan that in India, the supporters of Mir Jafar are present here…”
“‘Sar tan se juda’ has become the ideology of Lashkar-e-Pakistan Congress today…Such posts are done on the instructions of Rahul Gandhi, which makes the country ashamed. It is an attempt of Lashkar-e-Pakistan Congress to weaken India at such a sensitive time,” he added.
