The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won the most seats in the Karnataka polls, but was unable to form the government. The Congress and Janata Dal (Secular) are presently in an alliance in the state, but is yet to appoint a cabinet of ministers.
In response to Gandhi’s tweet, the BJP official handle tweeted that they wished Sonia well, but the women of Karnataka were awaiting the formation of a cabinet so that the government could start serving them.
“Everyone on social media hopes that you will keep us entertained from there too,” the tweet said.
Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Sunday urged social media trollers not to get “worked up” as he was accompanying his mother Sonia Gandhi abroad for her annual medical check-up.
“To my friends in the BJP social media troll army: don’t get too worked up…I’ll be back soon!” he tweeted.
On March 23, the United Progressive Alliance chairperson, who was in Shimla with her daughter Priyanka Vadra, was rushed to New Delhi after she complaining of illness. Sonia was flown to the national capital for treatment.
Rahul Gandhi’s trip abroad coincides with bypolls to Lok Sabha and assembly seats across states, which will test the opposition’s unity against the BJP.
