Bhopal: BJP on Wednesday lashed at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his latest remarks on the Hindu religion. BJP MLA Rameshwar Sharma has said that an FIR will be lodged against Rahul Gandhi for his "insulting Hindu gods and goddesses”. The hit out at the opposition leader came after he made some strong remarks connecting BJP and the Hindu religion while speaking at the All India Mahila Congress foundation day.

BJP MLA Rameshwar Sharma remarked: "I think Rahul himself is not Hindu. He may belong to any other community, that's why he made such insulting comments. If we look back at historical events, Hindus always suffered when Congress was in power in India. Why didn't Congress say anything at that time?" the BJP leader added. Sharma went on to claim that the Hindus of the nation are proud and contempt under the Narendra Modi government. "Under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Hindus feel proud because Ram Mandir is being established in Ayodhya and Section 370 has also been revoked in Kashmir,"

Asserting that Goddess Lakshmi stands for the power that helps one attain one's goals and Goddess Durga stands for the power that protects, Rameshwar Sharma said while his party had strengthened these powers when in government, the ruling BJP dispensation have diminished these powers. Sharma’s rant against the Congress leader came after Gandhi used Hindu gods’ names to explain how the BJP treats women in the nation.
