The BJP has criticized Congress politicians before for wearing inappropriate clothing. The two parties split in September of last year after the saffron party brought up Rahul Gandhi’s Burberry t-shirt, which allegedly cost more than Rs 41,000. Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s outfit, the Congress said, “costs Rs. 10 lakh.”
Through the launch of the sustainable clothing line “released,” which features products manufactured from recycled polyester, Indian Oil is advancing this endeavor.
