The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Friday hit out at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and accused him of making "absurd allegations" without evidence. Gandhi,
hours ago, alleged that he has proof of allegations against Prime Minister Narendra Modi on his phone, which is being "tapped by the prime minister." BJP spokesperson Tuhin Sinha said Gandhi believes in "hit-and-run politics" and makes fresh allegations every few days without caring to prove them, according to PTI. "Rahul Gandhi believes in hit-and-run politics. He thinks he can make an absurd allegation one day, does not feel obligated to provide evidence in support of it, and within three days, when he is unable to prove his allegation, he deflects to another issue," Sinha said, as quoted by PTI. Referring to Gandhi's earlier claim that senior bureaucrats in the government were sharing information with him, Sinha questioned how the two allegations could be reconciled. "Either Rahul Gandhi's first allegation was true or his second allegation is true. But the point is that Rahul Gandhi is a habitual liar. He cannot live without spreading a fresh lie or a fresh canard every new day," he said. Sinha also claimed that Gandhi failed to submit evidence regarding alleged 'vote theft', referring to the Opposition leaders' meeting with President Droupadi Murmu. Earlier today, Rahul Gandhi, responding to a question during an 'Ask Me' session on Instagram, said, "You did not let me talk on the farm bills, vote chori, SIR, China, on (Gen) Naravane's book, Epstein. I want a one-on-one debate. I don't want a debate entailing long speeches," the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha said. "I want that Narendra Modi makes allegations against me and I do the same to him. He can come; there will be a table, on one side there will be Narendra Modi ji and on the other side, it will be me," Gandhi said. Responding to another question during the session, Gandhi said the proof of all his allegations is on his phone, "which is tapped by the prime minister".
