"Begani shaadi main abdullah deewana": Giriraj Singh taunts Sanjay Raut for his remarks amid PM Modi abuse row

New Delhi [India], September 1 (ANI): Union Textile Minister Giriraj Singh on Monday took a dig at Shiv Sena UBT MP Sanjay Raut for suggesting that it was the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) workers who allegedly hurled abuses at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his late mother.
Singh stated that the opposition can invite as many people as they want for the election campaign, but the people of Bihar have already made a decision.
"Kayi log hai...begani Abdullah shaadi main. A derogatory remark was made against the people of Bihar and PM Modi in the land of Bihar. Is the public of Bihar asking for a panchnama? The public of Bihar has made a decision. They can bring however many people they want to the election. They will get to know," the Union Minister told ANI.
As the 'Voter Adhikaar Yatra' is set to conclude today, Singh argued that the INDIA bloc will have no standing in Bihar.

"INDI alliance will be cleared out from Bihar because of this yatra. Most of the people in the yatra were Muslims because they (oppn) served their mission. They invited Revanth Reddy, who abused Bihar. They invited MK Stalin, who abused Hindus. Will Bihar tolerate this disrespect? Hindus are also more (in population). Tejashwi Yadav will suffer a loss," the Union Minister said.
He claimed that those who extended their support to the opposition during their roadshows in Bihar were largely "Rohingya and Bangladeshi".
"They gave derogatory remarks against PM Modi's mother, and people of Bihar took it negatively. In your roadshows, those promoting you were mostly Rohingya and Bangladeshi," Singh said.
Speaking on PM Modi's visit to China to attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Summit, the Union Minister said, "This is a diplomatic win for PM Modi. Every country has disregarded and condemned the attack by Pakistan. It is a record that whatever decision PM Modi makes is for India's benefit."
His remarks follow Raut's claim that nobody from the opposition was abusing anyone, instead shifting the blame onto BJP leaders.
"Nobody is abusing anyone. Modi himself started the trend of abusing each other at the national stage in politics. Now, PM Modi and the BJP are scared. Be it Rahul Gandhi or Tejashwi Yadav, show me if anyone abused anyone. I have also followed the Yatra. It is the BJP people who hurl abuses and blame us. It was the BJP workers who entered the crowd," Raut told ANI.
The BJP has been targeting the opposition over alleged abuses hurled at PM Modi, while the opposition has refuted such claims, arguing that the ruling party in the centre was raising such issues to distract from the important ones.
The 16-day yatra, undertaken by Rahul Gandhi to highlight allegations of 'vote chori' (vote theft) by the BJP and the alleged irregularities in the revised voter list by the Election Commission of India (ECI), is scheduled to conclude in Patna today.
The rally began on August 18, with Rahul Gandhi and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tejashwi Yadav riding together in Sasaram. From there, the rally spanned across 25 districts, to Aurangabad, Gayaji, Siwan, and others.
Multiple other INDIA bloc leaders have attended the yatra at various points. Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav, CPI(ML) General Secretary Dipankar Bhattacharya, Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi, and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin have joined the rally.
Other chief ministers, including Karnataka Chief Minister Siddharamaiah, Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Sukhu, and Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, participated in the yatra. (ANI)
