NEW DELHI:
toolkit by
Congress as “manipulated media” on Thursday.
Patra’s tweet, posted on May 18, included the screenshot of a Word Document, which contained instructions to amplify BJP’s alleged apathy towards Covid relief work. Congress had alleged that the toolkit Patra had shared was “fake” and had threatened legal action against BJP members. On Thursday, Twitter too tagged Patra’s tweet as “manipulated”.
“Friends look at the #CongressToolKit in extending help to the needy during the Pandemic! More of a PR exercise with the help of “Friendly Journalists” & “Influencers” than a soulful endeavour,” Patra had posted.

An alleged document prepared by the All India Congress Committee (AICC) to âcorner the Modi government and various BJP governments in the countryâ through social media and on-ground strategies was extensively shared by top BJP leaders on May 18. The hashtag #CongressToolKitExposed soon began trending.
The document has been shared in two parts â four pages of a COVID-19 âtoolkitâ and four pages of research on the issues with the Central Vista project.
Twitter's unprecedented action comes in the wake of the Congress filing a forgery case against top BJP leaders and appears to endorse its charge that the 'toolkit' circulated by the BJP on social media on Tuesday is a fabrication.
