Priyanka Gandhi has cleared that they only think about Muslim votes: BJP spokesperson

"The Nehru-Gandhi family has cleared that they feel themselves safe in only the constituency where there are Muslim voters. Wayanad has 30 pc Muslim voters. The Congress party behaves like a modern Muslim league. After facing defeat in Amethi, Rahul Gandhi runs to a constituency where there is 30 pc Muslim voters. Priyanka Gandhi is making debut there. Their political strategy is to get 90 pc of these 30 pc Muslim voters. Congress is doing real communal politics. Before the independence, this used to be done by Mohammad Ali Jinnah. Today, Congress is doing it by dividing Hindus in castes, and wants to consolidate. Priyanka Gandhi has cleared that they only think about Muslim votes," says BJP spokesperson Pradeep Bhandari to PTI.
