Controversial British Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn sparked a fight between the Congress party and the Bharatiya Janata Party after a photo of him with Wayanad MP Rahul Gandhi in London surfaced on social media.
The Indian Overseas Congress Twitter handle shared a photograph of the former Congress president’s meeting with Corbyn in London. An enraged BJP lashed out asking Rahul whether he endorsed the British opposition leader’s ‘anti-India’ views.

Jeremy is known for his visceral dislike for India, advocates Kashmir’s secession and is unequivocally anti-Hindu.
Gandhi has finally found his overseas collaborator, who denigrates India with the same impunity as him. pic.twitter.com/Cn9U4fsCCK

Corbyn has often made headlines for expressing his views against India. Between 2015 and 2020, Corbyn was the Leader of the Labour Party and the Leader of the Opposition.
Law Minister Kiren Rijiju was among the BJP leaders who shared the photograph of Rahul with the controversial British leader on Twitter. Taking to Twitter, Rijiju asked: “Again… Rahul Gandhi meets UK MP and Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn who is known for his hatred and dislike for India and advocates Kashmir’s secession. Or how long and how much one can go on against one’s own country.”
