On Monday, Pakistan FM speaking to country's news channel said that Congress president Rahul Gandhi asked for documentary evidence from Modi government.

Congress has questioned IAF operation, politicising Forces' commendable action against terror, giving Pakistan an opportunity to spin a narrative where it can tell world it has role in creating and supporting terror groups in its soil, and distract international community from pressurizing it from acting against groups like Jaish-e-Mohammed.

Pakistan's government's strategy is probably to use India's opposition's political attacks against Modi government as its go-to defence. Imran Khan's Foreign Minister in interview h also remarked how in days following Pulwama terror attack all Indian Opposition parties h supported government, but later, after all party meet on February 27, revolted.

Qureshi's statements came on a day that Congress went all-out to question forces over potency of strikes, with Navjot Singh Sidhu shamefully asking if IAF h gone re to uproot trees or uproot terrorists.
