Sultanpur (UP), March 1 BJP MP Jagdambika Pal on Sunday criticised Rahul Gandhi, saying that the Congress leader believes "attacking" Prime Minister Narendra Modi will bring him publicity, and that he will be able to "mislead" the country through media coverage.
Speaking to reporters in Sultanpur, Uttar Pradesh, Pal said that opposition leaders such as Gandhi, AAP's Arvind Kejriwal, and Samajwadi Party's Akhilesh Yadav make allegations against the prime minister "in order to stay in the news".
He questioned how Yadav and his party could talk about Sanatan Dharma now, when during the Ram Temple movement, the Samajwadi Party "harassed kar sevaks".
"Kar sevaks were attacked with bullets while visiting the temple and performing kar seva...", Pal said, asking if the SP has forgotten the incident.
