The party wrote, &#8220;Even public support has to be bought for Rahul Gandhi. Look at this video. Influencers are being offered Rs 25,000 just to attend his Pune event.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"4\"\/><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"6\"\/>The BJP further alleged that attendees were expected to create and upload content from the event. In its post, the party said, &#8220;Rahul Gandhi\u2019s leadership is so weak that even event attendance needs to be paid for. <!-- -->Yet, he questions EVMs whenever he loses. Watch his PR tactics get exposed on camera.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"11\"\/>The BJP also alleged that the attendees were expected to create and upload content from the event.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"13\"\/>In the video, a person identifying himself as &#8220;Shantanu&#8221; is heard explaining the arrangement to a prospective attendee. According to the conversation, the attendee would receive payment after the event and would be required to post videos from their personal social media account.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"16\"\/>&#8220;Payment will be after the event, one or two days after the event. And I will make the payment, I will ask your account details or UPI ID and I will make the payment,&#8221; the caller says.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"18\"\/>When asked whether an official email would be sent, the caller replies, &#8220;No, no, no official email, you directly reach at the venue, I will share the location and there our person will contact with you.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"20\"\/>The caller further explains the expected content creation, saying, &#8220;No, no, not just attend, you have to highlight the event like make two or three videos.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"23\"\/>&#8220;One Rahul Gandhi ji will be speaking to record some part from there and some part from crowd. And you can make some opinion video like talking to some people, how students especially, there are girl students invited. So you can talk to them, how they are feeling about the event, Rahul Gandhi ji and all,&#8221; he adds.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"26\"\/>The caller also states that the videos should be posted soon after the event. &#8220;No, no deadline, like the event will be 22nd, so maybe by night or by morning 23rd you post all videos, whatever you have made.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"29\"\/>The BJP described the video as evidence of what it called Rahul Gandhi&#8217;s &#8220;PR tactics&#8221; and questioned the authenticity of support at the event.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"31\"\/>Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday announced that the &#8216;Chhatron Ki Goonj&#8217; event will be held exclusively for girls in Pune on August 22.
