“If BJP had a film franchise it would be called Lie Hard,” Rahul Gandhi


Delhi : A day after criticising BJP for having “an architecture based on lies”, Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Saturday took to Twitter to continue with the attack using a humorous wordplay. Gandhi’s Twitter interactions have recently created a lot of buzz. Unlike in the past, his tweets are now often laced with witty one-liners.
“If BJP had a film franchise it would be called Lie Hard,” Gandhi wrote on Twitter with three hashtags questioning BJP on its alleged lies. The wordplay is based on the famous American action film series Die Hard. Gandhi’s attack on the BJP comes just days after the Congress president was targetted by some for reportedly taking time off to watch the latest Star Wars movie hours after his party lost in Gujarat and Himachal Assembly elections.

The BJP, meanwhile, accused Gandhi of lowering the political discourse with “cheap barbs” on Saturday. “RahulG, is this the low level of political discourse that you are capable of? To gain power by all means, would you indulge in such cheap barbs? Think. Whatever you may do, “Satta Na Milegi Dubara” because people know the real corrupt face of Congress,” BJP spokesperson GVL Narsimha Rao wrote on Twitter.
