New Delhi: Indian National Congress led by its former chief Rahul Gandhi on Sunday organized a Twitter campaign with hashtag #SpeakUpForDemocracy for calling out of the BJP for destroying the country’s democracy using various means.

The campaign soon fetched enough tweets to become the top trending topic on Twitter India. It soon appeared in the top five trending topics worldwide on the micro-blogging site. By 4:30 pm the campaign had grossed over 3 lakh tweets and was placed fourth in the worldwide trending topics.

Several top national leaders of the party including Rahul Gandhi, Shashi Tharoor, and others took part in the campaign and slammed BJP for trying to systematically destroy the democracy in the country. The users during the campaign also added that the saffron party was using government agencies and “muscle power” to gain power in various states and was toppling elected governments.

The dig was focused more on the recent Rajasthan political crisis where the party alleges the BJP tried to topple the elected government to gain power using money.

Several users also called on media outlets for glorifying horse-trading by terming it as “master-stroke”.

The official twitter handle of Congress posted short videos of several of its leaders asserting how the BJP was involved in destroying the world’s largest democracy.

Here are some of the tweets from the campaign:
