Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad on Friday said Muslims do not vote for the BJP, but the government has given them “proper sanctity”.
“We have got 13 Chief Ministers of our own. We are ruling the country. Have we victimised any Muslim gentleman working in industry or service? Have we dismissed them? We don’t get Muslim votes. I acknowledge very clearly, but have we given them proper sanctity or not?” Mr. Prasad said at the annual Mind Mine Summit organised by the Hero Group in New Delhi
Prasad also took a dig at journalists and the Left and referred to JNU as their last bastion.
“We have a problem with some of our friends. Mostly, the Leftist friends and the journalists who entertain a pathological hatred against Narendra Modi. Good luck to them. The Left is left out all over the world. They are left out in Bengal, are surviving in Kerala and Tripura, but the Left has got a very good campus in Delhi, which is the JNU (Jawaharlal Nehru University) and I always say the Left also needs some consolation prize. So JNU is their consolation prize, we don’t mind that,” Prasad said.
