The Congress today vowed to take legal action over a "doctored" video clip and threatened the BJP with "payback" after the ruling party's top leaders shared the clip with a claim that "Pakistan Zindabad" slogans were heard during Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Yatra that's currently in Madhya Pradesh.
Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan was among those who made the claim on Twitter, after the BJP's MP Lokendra Parashar and IT Cell head Amit Malviya had done the same.
Shivraj Chouhan even said that those who raised such slogans "will not be spared at any cost, strict action will be taken against them".
Reacting immediately, Congress General Secretary and communications in-charge Jairam Ramesh tweeted, “A video doctored by the Dirty Tricks Department of the BJP is doing rounds to discredit the highly successful Bharat Jodo Yatra. We're taking necessary legal action immediately. We are prepared for such tactics, and there will be payback.”
