'Should tie a bomb to Rahul Gandhi and send him to another country': Pankaja Munde

NEW DELHI: Maharashtra state minister for rural development, women & child development, Pankaja Munde has stirred a controversy by her remarks against Congress president Rahul Gandhi.


Addressing a rally on Sunday, Munde said that a bomb should be tied around the Congress president's neck and then he should be sent to another country.

Munde was talking in reference with the Congress attacking the BJP regarding the surgical strike in Pakistan.

"We did surgical strike after cowardly attack on our soldiers. Some people ask what was surgical strike and what's the evidence? I say we should've attached a bomb to Rahul Gandhi and should have sent him to another country. Then they would have understood," she said.


Earlier Pankaja Munde, daughter of late Gopinath Munde, had sparked controversy with her remarks on "changing the Constitution".

During an election rally last week while campaigning for her sister Pritam, the state minister had said, "This is not a Zilla Parishad, but a Lok Sabha election. Mahamanav Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar wrote the Constitution. We have to change the Constitution, bring new bills and make some changes," she said.
