Refrain from ‘showing off’ eating at Dalit house
A similar statement came from BJP MP Savitri Bai as well, who stated photo-op of eating at Dalit house as an insult of Dalits
Uttar Pradesh: As only months are left for 2019 Lok Sabha elections, BJP leaders can be seen on ‘Mission Dalit’, where they are attempting to attract Dalit voters, either by spending a night in their village or eating in their houses.
Though, the practice was initiated after Prime Minister Narendra Modi ordered party workers to try and connect with Dalits, the party leaders turned it into a photo-op.

He further added saying, “Sangh has also been inviting Dalit girls to their house during navratras for many years now, but there has been no show off”.
