BJP MP Nishikant Dubey's ‘injustice to Hindus’ allegation against Rahul's Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra
Gandhi started the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra on January 14 from Manipur's Thoubal district.
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Nishikant Dubey on Saturday hit out at Congress' Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra, alleging that Rahul Gandhi is consolidating the votes of Bangladeshi infiltrators through his march and doing “injustice to Hindus”. He also said that Gandhi's Yatra included all Muslim participants and claimed that he has a video proof of it.
“The places he (Rahul Gandhi) has visited so far - Murshidabad, Malda, Kishanganj, Katihar, Purnea, Pakur, Sahibganj, Godda…All these are centers of Bangladeshi infiltrators. He is consolidating the votes of Bangladeshi infiltrators and doing injustice to Hindus,” the BJP MP said.

“…You are not even a Hindu but still, if you want to declare yourself as Hindu, we welcome it. But when you come, protect the Hindus too. Muslims are not going to be with you,” he added.
