However, he appeared to backtrack on his statement late Tuesday evening.

After the video of Dr. Aziz Qureshi, who worked as the Governor of the state from June 23 to July 22, 2014, discussions started in the state as well. This video is of 20 August. He says that Congress leaders say Jai Ganga Maiya, Jai Narmada Maiya... they should drown in shame. He also says that Nehru's heirs, the Congress people are now taking out religious tours.

They say say with pride that we are Hindus. The idols are kept in the PCC office. The Muslims of the country will not tolerate this, he further added while daring the party leadership to sack him from the party if they wished so. “Muslims are not slaves of any party, they dont get job, you don't take them in police, army, or navy, then why should Muslims vote for you. There is no problem even if one or two crores die out of 22 crore Muslims” he mused.
