'Those Who Vote For BJP Are Raakshas': Congress MP Surjewala Stirs Controversy, BJP Hits Back
A war of words has erupted between the BJP and Congress after Randeep Surjewala said that those who vote for the BJP are 'raakshas'.
Congress MP Randeep Surjewala has stoked a controversy after he said that those who vote for the Bharatiya Janta party (BJP) and its supporters are of 'Raakshas' (demon) tendency. While addressing a public meeting in Haryana's Kaithal, Surjewala launched a scathing attack on CM Manohar Lal Khattar-led BJP government in the state. Now, the saffron party has hit back at the Congress leader and said that only a person who is born into a 'raakshas' (demon) family can think of such 'indecent' language.
"...Those who vote for BJP and are BJP supporters are of 'raakshas' (demons) tendency. I curse from this land of Mahabharat..," Surjewala said.

"Congress has crossed all its limits. Randeep Surjewala, who calls 'Afzal Guru' as 'Afzal guru ji' and his party members calls 'Osama' as 'Osama ji', has started abusing Indian voters now. Congress party says on foreign land that democracy has died and 'Bharat Mata' has been murdered. Now Randeep Surjewala has said that voters who vote have the nature of demons. So now he's calling at least 23 crores, who vote BJP as the demon. Citizens are a form of god in democracy, but Congress is calling them demons.
