A Congress worker on Monday said the ruling BJP government is "playing the role of 'Raavan'" while Rahul Gandhi is "Ram" as party workers hit the streets in support of the Congress leader.

Congress workers are staging a nation-wide protest in support of Mr Gandhi ahead of his appearance before the Enforcement Directorate in connection with the National Herald money laundering case.

"The ruling govt is playing the role of 'Raavan'. We want to tell them that Rahul Gandhi is our 'Ram' and we are devoted to him; We will continue our protest till the time Rahul ji doesn't leave from ED office," said a Congress worker dressed in traditional costume.
