Minister of State for Micro Small and Medium Enterprises Giriraj Singh waded into controversy yet again, as he slammed the Congress Party for hosting an iftar party, saying it was spreading appeasement politics in the country.
"The Congress Party has started the appeasement politics in the country. Today, the so called secular leaders are following this politics and are organising the iftar party. I simply want to ask these people that whether they will organise the same for Hindus. There is no need to create such dramas by giving iftar parties," Singh told ANI.
Reportedly, earlier also Singh urged Hindus that instead of cutting cakes on birthdays, they should offer prayers in a temple.
