Taking a stand against the Congress's alleged favoritism towards certain communities, Union Minister and BJP candidate from Begusarai, Giriraj Singh, voiced his concerns on Saturday, accusing the grand old party of neglecting Hindu interests and privileging Muslims.
Addressing the media in Begusarai, Singh remarked, "The contention within the INDI alliance revolves around securing the Muslim vote bank. Congress, in pursuit of this objective, has marginalized Hindu interests and curtailed their constitutional entitlements."
Challenging the Congress leadership, he posed questions, "What are the intentions of Congress? Do they seek to instigate civil unrest? Are they provoking the Other Backward Class (OBC) to resort to agitation?"
Singh had challenged leaders like Lalu Prasad and Tejashwi Yadav on issues like the inclusion of Muslims under the OBC category in Karnataka, by the Siddaramaiah government.
While drawing the criticism of BJP on electoral bonds, Singh said, "Lalu Prasad himself accepted donations from a liquor company in the past, and now they attempt to cast aspersions on BJP's integrity regarding electoral bonds. Let it be known that our processes are transparent and aboveboard."
