NEW DELHI: The row over former prime minister Manmohan Singh's State funeral spilled into Sunday, with the BJP accusing the Congress of levelling "baseless allegations" of disrespect and mismanagement against the Centre.
The opposition party had called the government's arrangements for Singh's State funeral a "shocking display" of disrespect and mismanagement.
Hitting back, the BJP asked the Congress to stop "politicising" the former prime minister's death by levelling "baseless allegations" and accord him the dignity he deserved.
On Saturday, the Congress' media and publicity department chief Pawan Khera levelled a host of allegations against the Centre on the arrangements for Singh's State funeral at Nigambodh Ghat, saying it was "a shocking display of disrespect and mismanagement".
"No news agencies except DD (Doordarshan) was allowed; DD focused on Modi and Shah, barely covering Dr Manmohan Singh's family. Only three chairs were kept in the front row for Dr Singh's family. Congress leaders had to insist on seats for his daughters and other family members," he had said in a post on X.
