Cong. engaged in creating rift among "Brothers", says Smriti Irani

TIL Desk/National/Burhanpur/ Union minister and BJP leader Smriti Irani has accused the Congress of dividing communities and creating a rift among “brothers”. Ms Irani’s statement came in the backdrop of circulation of a purported video in which Madhya Pradesh Congress president Kamal Nath is allegedly asking a group of Muslims to ensure his party gets 90 per cent of votes in their booths.

In another video that surfaced early this month, Mr Nath was purportedly seen urging Muslims to be wary of the RSS agenda. The Congress leader had termed this video as fake.

Addressing an election rally in Madhya Pradesh, Ms Irani said “A Congress leader sitting among Muslim brothers was heard saying that come with us and he will deal with Hindus…Congress leader doesn’t know that when one brother meets another, he doesn’t ask his caste and religion.”

The BJP leader did not name Kamal Nath. Ms Irani alleged the Congress wanted to create a rift among “brothers” and division on communal lines. She taunted the Congress for not declaring its chief ministerial candidate before the elections in Madhya Pradesh.
