A day after Congress President Rahul Gandhi sought to question the ‘Hindu credential’ of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, as many as three Union Ministers including former BJP chief Rajnath Singh on Sunday – separately – lashed out at the principal opposition party. Mr Singh was supported by senior Minister Sushma Swaraj as well as party’s vocal leader and another Minister in the Modi cabinet – Smriti Irani.
“It is ridiculous that those leaders who were apprehensive and shy of taking the name of Hindu or Hindutva in the past are trying to ask us about Hinduism. I need not define Hindutva again, the Supreme Court had done it much earlier describing it as a way of life,” Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh told reporters at Bansur in Rajasthan.
