"Manmohan Singh Attended Iftaar Parties...": BJP Defends PM's Visit To Chief Justice's House | Read

BJP national spokesperson Sambit Patra on Thursday hit back at Opposition leaders' criticism over Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud's house for Lord Ganesha puja.  "The leaders of the Opposition are doing politics over the Lord Ganesha prayers offered by PM Modi at Chief Justice Chandrachud's residence yesterday. Should the different pillars of democracy not converge? Should they be enemies? Should they have no courtesies towards each other? This is the beauty of democracy that there are different behaviours while being on and off duty. You have an objection to the PM meeting the CJI, but no objection when Rahul Gandhi meets Ilhan Omar, the Chinese Premiere and signs MoU, George Soros. They have a problem with Ganesha puja but did the former PM Manmohan Singh not attend iftaar parties?" Sambit Patra said.
