Union Minister VK Singh was slammed by Congress a day after his ‘#disgust’ tweets over Pakistan Day visit to the High Commission created a furore.
Senior Congress leader Manish Tewari asked him to quit instead of expressing his disgust after he represented the Indian government at the Pakistan national day reception here.
Tewari said in the past, ministers had refused to attend Pakistan events.
“If Mr#duty#Disgust is so disgusted with double standards of his govt on Pak he should quit? Other Ministers in past refused to attend PAK EVENTS!” Tewari tweeted.
