As the date of Haryana assembly elections is approaching, political activities are intensifying. Bharatiya Janata Party has made an offer to Congress MP Kumari Selja. Union Minister and former Chief Minister of the state Manohar Lal Khattar gave a statement regarding this. Journalists asked him whether Kumari Selja and Randeep Singh Surjewala will join BJP? In response to this, Khattar said, ‘This is a world of possibilities and possibilities cannot be denied. You will know everything when the right time comes. She has been insulted in Congress.’
Manohar Lal Khattar said, ‘Sister Kumari Shailja has been insulted in Congress. We have brought many leaders with us and are ready to bring them with us too.’ Targeting Congress, he said that Shailja was even abused and now she has sat at home. He said, ‘Despite this insult, they (Congress high command) did not feel any shame. Today a large section is forced to think what to do.’ It is known that Shailja has been seen away from election campaigning for the last few days and is meeting supporters at her home.
Claim of insult to Shailaja, uproar over the video
This statement of Manohar Lal Khattar has come at a time when the issue of alleged insult of Kumari Shailja is being raised a lot. Actually, a video has gone viral on social media, in which a Congress worker is seen making objectionable remarks against Shailja. Former Haryana Chief Minister Bhupendra Singh Hooda said on this that there is no place in the party for anyone who makes objectionable remarks against Congress MP Kumari Shailja. The former Chief Minister said that it seems that the video has been tampered with. It is known that Hooda and Shailja are considered rivals of each other in Haryana politics.
Dalits protested, demanded action
In Uklana assembly constituency of Hisar district, various Dalit organizations burnt the effigy of former Chief Minister Bhupendra Singh Hooda in protest against the indecent remarks made on MP Kumari Selja. The protesters said that indecent remarks will not be tolerated. Strict action should be taken against those who insult the identity of the Dalit community. During the protest, the leaders demanded that strict action should be taken against the culprits and the honor of the Dalit community should be protected. While protesting, the people of the Dalit community said that the entire society is hurt by the remarks made against Kumari Selja and demands action.
