BJP calls Rahul Gandhi ‘Babar Bhakt’ and a ‘Kin of Khilji’

Rahul-Gandhi-GVL-Rao-644x362NEW DELHI : National Spokesperson of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) GVL Narasimha Rao on Wednesday attacked Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi and called him ‘Babar Bhakt’ & a ‘Kin of Khilji’ for teaming up with Owaisis and Jilanis to oppose Ram temple in Ayodhya.
The BJP spokesperson further wrote on micro blogging site Twitter, “Babar destroyed Ram temple & Khilji plundered Somnath. Nehru dynasty sided with both Islamic invaders. Travesty & Perversity of dynasty!”
“Rahul Gandhi has teamed up with Owaisis, Jilanis to oppose Ram temple in Ayodhya. Rahul Gandhi is certainly a “Babar Bhakt” & a “Kin of Khilji”. Babar destroyed Ram temple & Khilji plundered Somnath. Nehru dynasty sided with both Islamic invaders.Travesty & Perversity of dynasty!”, the BJP spokesperson tweeted.

On Tuesday party president Amit Shah also spoke on the issue and said that on one hand Rahul Gandhi is busy visiting temples in Gujarat on the other hand Kapil Sibal wants to delay the Ram Janmbhoomi case.
Amit Shah also questioned the double standards of Congress and asked them to clarify their stand in Ayodhya Ram Temple issue. “A surprising stand was taken in the Supreme Court by Congress leader and Sunni Waqf Board lawyer Kapil Sibal. He said hearing should be deferred till after 2019 Lok Sabha polls. The Congress Party should clear its stand if it wants to resolve the matter as early as possible or not,” Amit Shah was quoted as saying.
The BJP leader’s controversial remark comes a day after Congress leader and senior advocate Kapil Sibal, while arguing for the Sunni Waqf Board in the Babri Masjid case, told the Supreme Court on Tuesday that since the court’s decision in the case would have “very serious ramifications”, hearing be deferred till July 2019 by which time the general election would be over.
The Supreme Court, however, refused to defer the case until after the 2019 Lok Sabha polls. The court deferred the case hearing till February 8, 2018.
The Allahabad High Court had in 2010 ordered a three-way division of the disputed land which has been challenged in the Supreme Court. The mosque originally dates back to 1528. It was built in Ayodhya by Mir Baqi – a commander of Mughal emperor Babur – from where it gets the name Babri Masjid. However, a report by the Archaeological Survey of India suggested the existence of a 10th-century temple at the site.
