In the BJP's rap video, the party turns the table on Kanhaiya Kumar and the Congress as the song begins with the Azaadi chants reminiscent of the Azaadi song by Kanhaiya Kumar which gone viral, except the lyrics go "Azaadi" - with the text displaying the chant "Congress se Azaadi".

The rap begins immediately attacking the Congress calling it 'Notonki Sarkar," accusing it of corruption and showing the multiple scams the Congress government has been accused of.

The Congress too posted a similar video where it used Kanhaiya Kumar's viral song Azaadi as the opening in the rap video and followed it with its allegations against the BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, including the often used "Chowkidaar Chor He" phrase.

The video ends with Rahul Gandhi's call for unity against the nation's ill.
