BJP’s Ravi Kishan slams Rahul Gandhi in Kashi

VARANASI: Bhojpuri cine star and BJP MP from Gorakhpur Ravi Kishan on Saturday took a jibe at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, saying “days are not far when the Congress will be routed all over the country”.

Speaking to reporters after offering prayers at Kashi Vishwanath temple, Kishan praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the expansion of the temple area through the Kashi Vishwanath Dham project.

Reacting to Congress’s charge that the Centre was destabilizing its governments in states like Karnataka, Kishan said: “Our defence minister Rajnath Singh has already made it clear that Rahul is responsible for the disturbances in the Congress and the states ruled by it.”

He also blamed the opposition parties for conspiring mob lynchings.
