Continuing its attack on late Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi, the BJP on Thursday claimed that the "instructions to kill" citizens during the 1984 anti - Sikh riots came from the Prime Minister's office (PMO).
"It's on record in the Nanavati Commission that probed the 1984 anti - Sikh riots, the biggest genocide in which the government killed its own citizens, that instructions to kill came directly from then Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi's office, " the Bharatiya Janata Party's official Twitter handle posted.
"The country awaits justice for this karma. "
Responding to Modi accusing the late leader as a "corrupt" politician, Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Sunday tweeted: "Modiji, the battle is over.
Your karma awaits you.
Projecting your inner beliefs about yourself onto my father won't protect you.
