“Rahul Gandhi is not Lord Ram” Salman Khurshid’s clarification after controversy
Dec 28, 2022
New Delhi, December 28 (ANI): Congress leader Salman Khurshid on Dec 26 compared Rahul Gandhi to Lord Ram. He said “Lord Ram's 'khadau' goes very far. Sometimes when Ram ji is not able to reach, Bharat takes the 'khadau' and goes to places. Like that, we have carried the 'khadau' in UP. Now that 'khadau' has reached UP, Ram ji (Rahul Gandhi) will also come.” This statement had sparked controversy and several Hindu organization leaders and BJP leaders lashed out at Salman Khurshid for his statement. However now, Khurshid has given a clarification. He said, “Rahul Gandhi is not Lord Ram, but he can follow the path shown by Lord Ram. They (BJP) are saying that you do not have the right to walk on it. We have objection as they are following the path of Ravana instead of Ram.”
