Bharatiya Janata Party leader Nishikant Dubey on Modnay criticised Uttar Pradesh Congress President Ajay Rai's "big talk and no action" charge against the Central government following the Pahalgam terror attack. Dubey alleged that Rai is trying to "break the morale of the India army" just to protest against Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In a jibe towards the Congress, Dubey called Rai as the "UP President of the pro-Pakistan Congress Party."

"Look at Ajay Rai, UP President of pro-Pakistan Congress Party, who is making headlines in Pakistani newspapers and channels, and understand the conspiracy of Congress Party to break the morale of the army in protest against Modi," read the post by Dubey on X.

Dubey's comments are in reply to Rai criticising the central government on May 4 for not doing enough to punish the terrorists of Pahalgam attack, alleging that while Rafale fighter jets have been purchased, but they are lying in hangars with "nimbu mirchi" (lemon and chillies) hanging on them, saying that they are not being used at all. Dubey had posted a picture of Rai holding a toy plane with 'Rafale' written on it, and lemon and chillies were hanging from it.

The UP Congress president had said earlier, "Terrorist activities have increased in the country, and people are suffering from it. Our youth lost their lives in the Pahalgam terror attack... But, this government, which talks a lot, says that they will crush terrorists - they brought Rafale, but they are in their hangars having chilly and lemon hanging in them. When will they take action against terrorists, those who support them, and their backers?"

Rai's comments have been met with severe backlash from the BJP, with multiple leaders condemning the remarks and accusing him of supporting Pakistan.

BJP National Spokesperson Pradeep Bhandari said that as soon as Pakistani propaganda is banned in India, the Congress party will officially spread propaganda of the Pakistani Terror Deep State.

Bhandari had said, "The Congress party has become an official spokesperson of the Pakistani Terror Deep State. We can see a pattern that whenever Rahul Gandhi steps forward, he gives full support to PM Narendra Modi's Government, that they take action against Pakistani Terror Deep State, and in less than 24 hours some or other Congress leader comes and speaks in support of Pakistan."
