Busy making reels: Kanhaiya Kumar stokes row with remark on Fadnavis's wife
Nagpur, Nov 14: Congress leader Kanhaiya Kumar on Thursday took a personal jibe at Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis over the latter's recent comment about countering "vote jihad' with "vote dharmyudh".
Is it that common people will fight this "dharmyudh" while children of leaders will study abroad far away from all this, Kumar asked.
"Or will it happen that we will fight to protect 'dharma' while the deputy CM's wife makes Instagram reels," he said addressing a rally for the Congress in Nagpur South West seat.
If "dharma" needs to be protected, then everyone will do it together, Kumar added.
In a rally recently, Fadnavis had said "vote jihad" took place in the Lok Sabha polls and members of a particular community ensured BJP did not get their votes. He claimed the Mahayuti lost the Dhule Lok Sabha seat due to this voting pattern in Malegaon.
Attacking Fadnavis, the former student activist asked why the BJP leader had a problem with sharing the CM's tenure with Uddhav Thackeray when he went on to be CM Eknath Shinde's deputy.
"Why did you split Balasaheb Thackeray's Shiv Sena? If you believed the NCP was corrupt, why did you induct its faction into the Mahayuti? This is because Shinde is not CM but chowkidar of corrupt Gujarati businessman," Kumar said in a swipe at the BJP-led ruling alliance.
In Nagpur South West, Congress' Prafulla Gudhade Patil is pitted against Fadnavis.

New Delhi: The Supreme Court has instructed the Delhi government, the Municipal Corporation of Delhi and the New Delhi Municipal Corporation to clear all localities of Delhi, especially the open localities and cities, of stray dogs, making no compromise in the operation.
Hearing a suo motu case initiated by the court over several incidents of rabies and deaths from stray dog bites, a two-judge bench consisting of Justice JB Pardiwala and R Mahadevan said that the operation should also be undertaken at the earliest, reports Bar and Bench.
The judges directed the authorities to plan the operation, including forming a force for it. They further stressed that clearing the localities of stray dogs should be a priority for the authorities.
The Delhi government and the municipalities were directed to create dog shelters within eight weeks and equip them with staff members to sterilize and immunize the dogs. The dog shelters should also be provided with CCTV cameras, the judges have said.
The apex court has warned that strict action would be taken against individuals or organizations obstructing the operation. Referring to animal rights activists and criticizing them heavily, the bench asked if the activists could bring alive the victims of rabies.
The judges orally stated, "We are not doing this for us—it is for the public interest. so no sentiments of any nature should be involved. Action should be taken at the earlier. Pick up dogs from all localities and shift them to far off places.”
