New Delhi: Attacking the Congress for politicising the suicide of a Dalit scholar from the University of Hyderabad, Union Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi on Tuesday accused the grand old party of aggravating the already tense situation.

'Rahul Gandhi and the Congress thing they can simply condemn everything. They are rubbing salt instead of soothing the wounds in the matter and I vehemently condemn that,' Naqvi told ANI.
