Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Meenakshi Lekhi sought to raise Rahul Gandhi's remarks about the agreement but did not take any name.
"I condemn the statement. They are running false propaganda on social media regarding the issue. It demotivates our Army and people. India's border is up to Finger 8," she said.
