"Jhooth Bole Kauwa Kaate": BJP to Raghav Chadha

New Delhi, Jul 26: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MP Raghav Chadha was attacked by a crow while he was speaking on the phone within the premises of Parliament on Tuesday. The moment was captured by a photographer with the news agency PTI and the pictures soon went viral on the internet.

 

 

 

A series of three to four pictures shows a crow flying over Chadha's head and pecking on top of his head as he came out of the House after attending Rajya Sabha proceedings. A startled Chadha, upon realizing this, bent down.

 

 

 

Taking the pictures on Twitter, Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) Delhi handle tweeted taunting the AAP leader with an old Hindi saying, “Jhooth Bole Kauwa Kaate” BJP Delhi said in the tweet, “Till today we had only heard, today we saw also, the crow bites the liar!” The post, which garnered over 4,000 likes and nearly 1,400 retweets, has worried netizens. Several Twitter users responded by saying that they were concerned about Chadha's health. One user also said, “Heart is very upset.” Another Twitter user said that it was a bad omen. BJP's attack comes as the Opposition on Wednesday moved a no-confidence motion against the government after demanding Prime Minister Narendra Modi speak on the Manipur violence inside Parliament.
