'Who Taught You Pathological Obsessive Lying Skills': BJP MP Rajeev Chandrasekhar On Rahul's Tribute To His Father

Sharing two separate photos, one of Rajeev, the other of himself -- joined hands, closed eyes and bowing in front of his father's tomb -- Rahul Gandhi remembered the former prime minister.

BJP parliamentarian Rajeev Chandrasekhar on Tuesday kicked up a controversy on Twitter after he targetted Congress President Rahul Gandhi over the latter's homage to his father and former prime minister Rajiv Gandhi.

Sharing two separate photos, one of Rajeev, the other of himself -- joined hands, closed eyes and bowing in front of his father's tomb -- Rahul remembered the former prime minister.

"My father was gentle, loving, kind & affectionate. He taught me to love & respect all beings. To never hate. To forgive. I miss him.

"On his death anniversary, I remember my father with love & gratitude. #RememberingRajivGandhi," he wrote.

An hour later, Chandrasekhar quote-tweeted Rahul, saying, "I just want to know one thing - who “taught” u this pathological obsessive lying skills?"

Slamming Chandrasekhar, a Twitter user reminded him of a 2014 tweet in which he had mentioned Rajiv Gandhi as one of the leaders he admired.

Several other users on the microblogging site lambasted the BJP MP, with some even questioning his 'civility'.
