The BJP on Friday accused the Congress of transforming into a 'cocaine party' amid the arrest of Tushar Goyal linked to a drugs haul valued at Rs 5,600 crore. The accusation was part of an intensified political attack by the ruling party.

In a press conference, BJP spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia dismissed the Congress youth wing's claim of expelling Goyal in 2022, calling it a forgery. He demanded digital proof to support the Congress's assertions of Goyal's disassociation.

Bhatia alleged the drug haul aimed at pushing India's youth into addiction and implicated Congress, requesting clarification from Rahul Gandhi on the issue. The BJP reiterated its commitment to eradicating drug abuse, contrasting with its claims against Congress.
