Rahul Gandhi slammed BJP leader Anantkumar Hegde after his controversial remarks about a Congress leader’s wife at a public event.
New Delhi: Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Monday slammed BJP leader Anantkumar Hegde for his controversial remarks about a Congress leader’s wife, saying he is “unfit” to be a Union minister and deserves to be sacked.
Hegde on Sunday had reportedly said at a public event that any hand that touches a Hindu girl “should not exist”.
Criticised by Congress leader Dinesh Gundu Rao for his remarks, the Union Minister of State for Skill Development and Entrepreneurship tweeted, “I shall definitely answer this guy @dineshgrao’s queries, before which could he please reveal himself as to who he is along with his achievements? I only know him as a guy who ran behind a Muslim lady.”
Rao is married to a Muslim woman. -PTI
