They go to offer their condolences, they come out, see the media and utter not one word of condolence or that they are feeling sad about the incident. Immediately, they start raking up the Prime Minister's name, making allegations and allegations in a case where the culprits have been arrested," BJP spokesperson Nalin Kohli told ANI here.
