Drop Anurag Thakur, Parvesh Verma As BJP Star Campaigners, Says Poll Body | Read

Union Minister Anurag Thakur and BJP leader Parvesh Sahib Singh should be removed from the party's list of star campaigners for next month's Delhi Assembly elections, the Election Commission ordered this afternoon. The poll body's order comes after shocking comments by both leaders during election rallies in the national capital this week, in which Mr Thakur urged a crowd to "goli maaro (gun down traitors)" and his colleague claimed those who have mounted a weeks-long peaceful sit-in protest against the controversial citizenship law "will enter your houses, rape your sisters and daughters".
