Raj said, the photos were randomly used by the Bharatiya Janata Party’s IT cell for the promotion of Prime Minister, Narendra Modi and his government. Sambuddha Mitra Mustafi had interviewed Chiley, who he claimed were MNS workers. The photograph was taken at that time and the Chiley family had agreed for their picture to be taken.
Tawde further said, Congress and the Nationalist Congress Party do not react to anything that the Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan says, only Raj seems to react. “Moreover, is there a connect between Raj and Pakistan, there should be an inquiry. Raj reacts to Imran and he in turn becomes a hero in Pakistan,” said Tawde.
