"Will never forget the CM's house was cleaned with Gangajal, says Akhilesh Yadav continuing attack on Anurag Thakur.

New Delhi [India] July 31 : Continuing his attack on the BJP, after Anurag Thakur's caste remarks on Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Wednesday said that he would never forget the day when CM's house (in UP) was cleaned with Gangajal.
"I will never forget the day when CM's house (In Uttar Pradesh) was cleaned with Gangajal. How can a CM house be cleaned with Gangajal, now you want to go to the moon, talk about Digital India, Amritkal, Viksit Bharat and yet you wash the temples with Ganagjal." Akhilesh Yadav said.
"Once I went to a temple where some didn't want me to perform havan and puja, In Kannauj, I visited the same temple that I visited for the first time before winning my first election. The temple was washed afterwards with Gangajal." He added.
Repeating the question asked by the SP leader in the Lower House on Tuesday, he said, "Can BJP ask the caste of any Congress leader or any other person."
Reacting to the INDIA Alliance's scathing attack on Anurag Thakur, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju said, " I condemn what Congress has done, they keep talking about castes all the time. They ask the castes of media people and army personnel. Congress has hatched a conspiracy to divide the country based on castes."
"They keep asking about everyone's castes, but Rahul Gandhi's caste can't be asked. Are they above the country and Parliament? They want to weaken democracy and the country's economy, they want to spread anarchy and violence." he further added.
India Alliance has launched a united attack on Anurag Thakur as DMK MP Kanimozhi said, "It is unfortunate that a senior leader, who has also been a minister, thinks that caste is important of any human being, leave alone the LoP.
"This is the example they are going to set for the youth of this country. I am worried about the future of the young people of this country. It is even more saddening that the PM has retweeted that speech and said that everyone should listen to that speech. Is this what they are trying to tell the nation that caste is important?" Kanimozhi added.
Anurag Thakur on Tuesday entered into a heated argument with Rahul Gandhi during his speech in the Lower House of the parliament, saying that those whose caste is not known are asking for the caste census.
"He (Rahul Gandhi) talks about OBC, he talks about the census, whose caste is not known are asking for the caste census."
He further added, "In this parliament, a former prime minister RG-1 (Rajiv Gandhi) protested against giving the reservation to OBCs"
Over Thakur's remark, LoP Rahul Gandhi launched a scathing attack on the Hamirpur MP, saying you can insult me every day but keep in mind that the caste census will be passed here (Lok Sabha) one day.
"Whoever raises the issues of Adivasi, Dalit and the backwards, is abused. I will happily accept these abuses...Anurag Thakur has abused me and insulted me. But I do not want an apology from him," Rahul Gandhi added.
