Lucknow: In a shocking comment, A video shows Congress candidate from Saharanpur Lok Sabha constituency in UP, Imran Masood, as saying: “Hum Modi ki kutti kaat denge (We will chop Modi into pieces).
The comment made by Masood has evoked sharp reactions. Former Congress leader and now BJP’s Domariyaganj candidate, Jagdambika Pal, has sought Congress’ apology. Congress candidate from Ghaziabad, Raj Babbar, called Masood’s remark wrong and unacceptable.
Slamming Masood’s remark as uncivilised language, well-known cleric Maulana Khalid Rashid Firangi Mahali said such hate comments have no place in politics. Communist Party of India (CPI) leader D Raja called it a serious matter. The EC and law-and-order agencies must take note, said Raja.
He is also seen saying that Uttar Pradesh is not Gujarat. UP is not Gujarat. There is only 4 percent Muslim population in Gujarat but in UP there are 22 percent Muslims here. I will fight against Narendra Modi because I know how to give a fitting reply to him. We will cut him into pieces.
Imran Masood also added that even if he had said such a thing, he would have meant that he would teach Modi a lesson through the democratic process, the newspaper reported. He, however, refused to apologies for his words. I am ready to offer my apology only after Modi apologizes for his misdeeds in Gujarat, he said.
