Gandhi's trip to Kailash Mansarovar has been questioned by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), with the latter demanding an explanation from the Congress President.
Accusing Gandhi of being a "Chinese spokesperson," BJP's Sambit Patra had said, "You are Rahul Gandhi, not 'Chinese' Gandhi. What is it that you always speak in favour of the neighbouring country?"
