On Valentine's Day, the Congress's social media team worked overtime to shred the BJP meme by meme. The party shared caricatures of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, top BJP leaders and ministers and targeted each of them on a different issue.
For PM Modi, the party chose Rahul Gandhi's "chowkidar (gatekeeper)" jibe.
The series, hash-tagged #LoveNotHate, also seems to have taken party chief Rahul Gandhi's thoughts on hugs with all seriousness. Every tweet is accompanied a hug emoji.

The Congress jabbed Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath for his name-changing spree in the state.
"Are you a semi-high speed train? Coz in my head you're moving at 2x speed," the meme on Railway Minister Piyush Goyal reads, days after he was roasted for posting a video of Vande Bharat Express, India's fastest train, which the Congress says was in fast forward mode.
