The Congress and the BJP were engaged in a war of videos on Twitter over the Rafale fighter jet deal, with the ruling party explaining how it benefitted the country and the opposition accusing it of hiding facts.
The BJP and the Congress released the over two-minute videos, accusing each other and explaining the deal by using an analogy of locks in a society/building that were to be changed with new ones.
"Trapped in the web of lies on Rafale deal? Watch this simplified explanation," the BJP tweeted yesterday.
The video used TV actress Pallavi Joshi explain the Rafale deal.
The Congress then put out its own video today, saying, "Trapped in the web of lies on Rafale deal? Watch this 'real' explanation. PS: To the BJP 'mitrogen' is clearly getting to your head."
The narrator said when she became the secretary, she got to know that the old secretary was just talking about buying locks. "What is the use of that if we dont have video door phones with them. If we buy locks with such advanced technology, then there will expenditure on its maintenance and repair."
