The Congress today alleged that the BJP takes refuge in Pakistan by seeking to polarise and divert public attention whenever it loses an election.

The opposition party's attack came after BJP leader Sambit Patra tweeted a purported video of Mumbai attack mastermind Hafiz Saaed delivering a speech against Prime Minister Modi and wrote, It's not just the yet formed 'Mahagathbandhan' that desperately wants to stop India from having Modi as its PM in 2019".

Patra later said, Of course this is not a comparison! Modi Ji's attack on Black Money and corruption is getting the opposition in India on one page while his attack on terrorism & Surgical Strike is pushing Hafiz Saeed to desperation! This proves that the Modi government is moving the right way!
Taking a dig at the prime minister over his foreign trips, Khera said, "Every 11 days in the last four years at an average you were abroad, sometimes with agenda -- without results, sometimes without agenda -- definitely without results."
