UP polls: Rijiju accuses Akhilesh Yadav of insulting Lord Buddha

By means of PTI

NEW DELHI: Regulation Minister Kiren Rijiju on Thursday accused Samajwadi Birthday celebration chief Akhilesh Yadav of insulting Lord Buddha by means of allegedly no longer accepting his bust at an election rally in Uttar Pradesh.

Rijiju shared a video of Yadav purportedly no longer receiving the bust being given to him as a present and it appears asking that or not it’s saved behind the curtain.

The rally came about in Kaushambhi a couple of days in the past.

A number of BJP leaders too have accused the SP leader of insulting Lord Buddha.

“I knew that Akhilesh Yadav was once by no means thinking about the feelings of Dalits, however this open insult of Lord Buddha is an insult of India’s ethos,” the Union minister tweeted in Hindi.

Kaushambhi is a significant pilgrimage website for Buddhists.
