Union Minister Sadhvi Niranjan Jyoti embarrassed her party on Monday by making explicit comments during BJP’s election rally in Delhi.
Addressing in Shyam Nagar, Niranjan Jyoti asked the voters to choose between Ramzadon and har**zadon.
“Aapko tay karna hai ki Dilli mein sarkar Ramzadon ki banegi ya har**zadon ki. Yeh aapka faisla hai (you have to decide whether Delhi will get a government of those born of Ram or of those born illegitimately),” said Niranjan Jyoti.
Minister of State for Food Processing Industries also claimed that everyone including Muslims and Christians are sons of Ram and asked people to leave India if they do not believe in this ideology.
“It is for you to decide, whether you want to vote for those who believe in Ram or those who are non-believers,” Sadhvi said.
The minister also attacked Robert Vadra over his alleged scam.
“The son of an ordinary family, who sold utensils – Sonia Gandhi’s son-in-law – how did this man become a millionaire? They robbed the poor,” Niranjan Jyoti said.
“(Prime Minister Narendra) Modiji has been saying – neither we will indulge in corruption nor we will let others,” she added.
After realizing the criticism over her comments, she came forward to defend her remarks.
“I was targeting the separatist and anti-national forces. Why are people taking offence to that? What would you say to the people who attacked Parliament? What would you say to the people who attack our borders. All that I have said is that when Indians go abroad they are referred to as ‘hindustani’,” she said.
However, the minister had to apologized in the Parliament on Tuesday for her derogatory remarks after opposition parties cornered the Modi government in both the Houses.
