An animation released by the BJP’s official Instagram handle, which claimed that the “Congress will snatch wealth” from “non-Muslims” to “distribute it” to its “favourite community” of “invaders”, has now been removed from the party’s social media account.
It’s not clear whether the BJP took down this video or whether Instagram removed it after mass reporting – the video was reported as “misinformation” and “hate speech” by many Instagram users.
The animated video, which depicted Rahul Gandhi holding a Congress manifesto with its cover transforming into the logo of the Muslim league, said Modi needs support from every “Bharatiya”, or Indian, because “if the Congress Party comes to power, it will snatch all the money and wealth of non-Muslims and distribute it to Muslims. Their favourite community!”
