TPCC chief Revanth Reddy along with other Congress leaders met senior police officials. In the complaint, Revanth said that during a recent election rally held in Uttarakhand, Sarma had made abusive remarks against Rahul Gandhi after the latter demanded proof for 'Surgical Strike' carried out in September.

"Sarma made derogatory comments against Rahul Gandhi saying that if BJP ever demanded proof of Rahul Gandhi being the son of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi," Revanth Reddy said in the complaint.

Revanth added that the Sarma's remarks at the rally was intended to 'create disharmony in the society and incite enmity, hatred, ill-will against the community of followers and supporters of the Indian National Congress and its leaders Rajiv Gandhi, Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi,' Reddy said.
