Ghanti Bajao: Why a war of controversial comments during elections?

Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani has said if poll results showed a trend of Congress winning, "Diwali would be celebrated in Pakistan".

"While it is unlikely to happen, but if that happens on the May 23 on the results day, and the results show a trend that Congress is winning, Diwali celebrations would start in Pakistan," Rupani said at the 'Vijay Sankalp Rally' on Sunday. 

The Bharatiya Janata Party launched its rally from Mehsana, the north Gujarat region dominated by the Patel community.
