The BJP has launched a fierce attack on Rahul Gandhi after an anti-Modi poster surfaced ahead of Prime Minister Modi's U.S. visit, accusing Gandhi of collaborating with anti-India forces.

BJP leader Sudhanshu Trivedi and IT cell head Amit Malviya criticized Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over an anti-Modi protest poster in New York. Accusations include Gandhi's alleged collaboration with anti-India forces and undermining India's image abroad.

BJP IT cell head Amit Malviya shared the alleged anti-Modi poster on his X handle which said the Prime Minister was not welcome in New York. Modi is on a three-day US visit from Saturday.

Prime Minister Narendra embarked on a three-day visit to the US to attend a summit of the grouping and address a key conclave at the United Nations.

The BJP has linked recent posters in the US targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's visit. BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi condemned the posters and alleged that they stem from anti-India forces.

Addressing a public gathering during the ‘PM Vishwakarma’ programme in Wardha, Maharashtra, Modi said that this was not the same old Congress. "The spirit of patriotism has died in today's Congress. The ghost of hatred has entered today's Congress," he said.

BJP IT cell chief Amit Malviya shared the protest poster on X. It read "Protest: Modi you are not welcome in New York" and bore the details of a protest march planned in New York on Sunday by an organization which called itself "Coalition for Reclaiming Democracy in India."

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday accused the Congress of "insulting" the nation with remarks during foreign visits by its leaders, targeting Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi over his recent speech in the US.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi recently reacted to the criticism against his statements on religious freedom. Gandhi says the BJP “is desperate to silence him” after the former Congress President made controversial remarks in the US, which drew flak from many BJP leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Having clarified his remarks on reservation, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday broke his silence on the other statement - on religious freedom - he had made during his recent US visit that made him the target of attacks from BJP leaders.
