This comes at a time when the Congress is gearing up for crucial local-body and assembly elections with unconditional political support from the Jamaat's political offshoot, the Welfare Party.

On Thursday, posting a news report on the unprecedented victory of JeI's student wing in Dhaka University's union election on X, he wrote that though the news may register as barely a blip on most Indian minds, it is a worrying portent of things to come in India.
