BJP's youth wing today protested outside the Congress office with its president and party MP Anurag Thakur alleging that the opposition party was standing against the nationalist forces over the JNU row.
"The Congress-led UPA headed by Sonia Gandhi and Manmohan Singh supported Ishrat Jahan when it was in power and it is now standing against the nationalist forces in JNU. Rahul Gandhi should decide if he is with the nationalist forces or anti-nationalist forces," Thakur said addressing protestors.
Many workers of Bhartiya Janata Yuva Morcha were arrested and later released by police.
Thakur said Congress will have to pay a price for "supporting" Maoists in JNU as the youth was with nationalist forces being led by BJP, according to a party statement.
"The youth wants to take the country forward under the leadership of Narendra Modi. But Rahul Gandhi wants to curb India's growth by supporting anti-national forces bent on creating disharmony," he said.
