The Congress today said the BJP is a confused party which does not know what its agenda is and runs on "lies" and "Twitter" only.

"The BJP is a confused party. It does not know what its agenda is. Sometimes its leaders talk about communalism and sometimes about secularism.

"Sometimes the party talks about special programmes for minorities and sometimes it says we think everyone is alike," Congress spokesperson Meem Afzal told reporters here.

"The BJP says everyone is alike. If everyone is alike before you (BJP), then why did you not give ticket to any member of the minority community for Gujarat elections.
 

"It is a confused party and they should first get rid of that confusion and then talk about anything else," Afzal said.

Reacting to Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi's speech in Pune yesterday, the Congress spokesman said Modi is lying about the progress in Gujarat.

"His state is lagging behind in sports and education. He does not know anything else than lying," he said.

"The BJP is a party which runs on lies and Twitter. It remains to be seen how many people on Twitter vote for the party.
