Union Minister Giriraj Singh accuses Rahul Gandhi of “napak” ties with Pakistan after reports of mangoes from the Pakistan Embassy, sparking a political row

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Wednesday accused Rahul Gandhi and other Congress leaders of having ‘napak’ (impure) ties with Pakistan, following reports that the Islamabad embassy sent mangoes to Gandhi and other Lok Sabha MPs.

“Some time ago, Rahul Gandhi said he doesn’t like mangoes from Uttar Pradesh. Now, the Pakistan Embassy has sent mangoes to him. He should clarify what else he likes. Did he go to Pakistan to ask for help in removing Modi?” Union Minister Giriraj Singh said as he targeted the Leader of the Opposition (LoP).

Mangoes Row

Singh suggested that Gandhi’s recent criticisms of Prime Minister Narendra Modi were attempts to solicit support from Pakistan to oust the current NDA government. He further questioned, “Rahul Gandhi should tell if he has gone to Pakistan to ask for anything to remove Modi.” The LoP has yet to respond to this controversy.

‘Did not like UP mangoes’

“In Bangladesh, Pakistan-backed Jamaat-e-Islami terrorists are burning Hindu houses and temples and here Rahul Gandhi, Shashi Tharoor, Sibal, Iqra Chaudhary, Mohibullah Nadvi, Zia Barq, Afzal Ansari are sucking the mangoes sent by Pakistan,” the Union Minister wrote on social media platform X.

“They did not like the mangoes of Uttar Pradesh and neither are they able to hear the pain of Hindus of Bangladesh,” he added. BJP MP Anurag Thakur also weighed in, saying, “They (Congress leaders) are receiving mangoes from the place their heart lies. He doesn’t like the mangoes of UP, but seems excited about the mangoes from Pakistan.”

BJP IT chief Amit Malviya took to social media to attack Rahul Gandhi and other leaders of Congress. He said, “Why would the Pakistan High Commission send mango cartons to these select 7 Indian MPs? Rahul Gandhi, Kapil Sibal, Shashi Tharoor, Mohibbullah Nadvi, Zia Ur Rehman, Barg Afzal Ansari and Iqra Hasan.” Some people can also be identified by who sends them mangoes, he wrote on X in Hindi.
