Kapil Sibal takes jibe at RS Prasad over his criticism on RaGa's tweet

Congress leader Kapil Sibal accused Ravi Shankar Prasad for indulging in 'tweet' diplomacy and asked the later to raise substantial issues.

New Delhi: Senior Congress leader Kapil Sibal took a jibe at Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad for his criticism on Congress President Rahul Gandhi's tweet during a press conference here on Thursday.

Kapil Sibal said, "Don't do a press conference for a tweet. It does not fit to your status as a minister or the status of this government."

"Talk about more substantial things," he added.

He also said, "Is it tweet diplomacy happening in the country? Doesn't Ravi Shankar Prasad have any other issue to rise rather than a tweet?"

While addressing the media, Ravi Shankar Prasad had said, "Rahul Gandhi feels happy and proud after seeing himself in Pakistani media." Earlier, Rahul Gandhi accused BJP of letting Masood Azhar off the hook and stated Prime Minister as weak and scared of Chinese President Xi Jinping.
