Nagaland BJP chief's praise for Rahul Gandhi precedes a taunt

Nagaland's minister and state BJP chief Temjen Imna Along praised Rahul Gandhi's picture posted by the official handle of the Congress on Twitter.

In the picture, Rahul Gandhi is seen in a well-fitted suit, hands in the pockets, posing for the photo as he attended an interactive session at the Chatham House in London. Along wrote, "Manna padega, Photo toh achchi ayi, Confidence aur Pose bhi Next Level hain."

However, he later took a jibe at the Congress for plagiarising the caption for Rahul's photo. He wrote, "At least write the caption yourself."

The Nagaland BJP chief is known for his witty comments on social media. He has earlier caught attention of his followers with his witty comments about his eyes and at several other occasions.

However, a hint of sarcasm in what seemed like a blatant praise was later understood, when he Along took to micro-blogging site Twitter where he posted a screenshot of the Congress' tweet and another infographic that had the caption that Congress attached with the picture of Rahul Gandhi.
