TIL Desk/National/Haryana/ The BJP led by its chief Amit Shah has launched a scathing attack on the Congress over its criticism of Shastra Puja on the Rafale fighter jet, saying those who “used to worship Quattrocchi, ‘Shastra Puja’ is now a problem” for them.
Taking on the Congress over the issue, Shah in an election rally in Kaithal in Haryana said it has been a tradition to worship weapons on the occasion of Vijay Dashmi.”We worship weapons on Vijaydashmi to take a pledge to end evil, and same was done in case of Rafale, but for the Congress it is ‘tamasha’.
After repeated defeats, the Congress is frustrated and doesn’t know what it is opposing,” he said. Shah was responding to Congress’s criticism of the Shastra Puja carried by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Tuesday in France while receiving the first Rafale fighter jet.
