BJP Mocks Rahul Gandhi's "Hydrogen Bomb" Claim, Accuses Him of Arousal and Unfounded Allegations

The BJP on Monday mocked Rahul Gandhi's claim that he will soon come out with a "hydrogen bomb" as part of his vote theft charge, saying that his "atom bomb" had turned out to be a damp squib. The party accused Gandhi of demeaning his position as the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha with irresponsible comments. Ravi Shankar Prasad, the BJP leader, noted that the ruling party suffered setbacks in States like Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra in the 2014 Lok Sabha elections due to the Opposition's "false" campaign that the Modi Government would change the Constitution if it were re-elected. However, people soon realised the truth and voted the BJP to record wins in Haryana and Maharashtra, he added.
