Bangalore, December 7: As the Karnataka Assembly elections draw near, fierce verbal duels are taking place between political parties. Recently, BJP general secretary CT Ravi called Congress leader and former chief minister (CM) Siddaramaiah as Sidramullah Khan. This has created a controversy on social media.
Now, the Congress has tweeted a photo of some BJP leaders in Muslim attire and asked the people what to call them. It has tweeted a photo of CM Bommai, Jagadish Shettar, R Ashok, and Nitin Gadkari and asked if it can be called Bommaiullah Khan, Jabbar Khan, Ashwaq Inayat Khan, Mohammed Gadkari Sheikh.
The Congress has tweeted an old photo of CM Basavarj Bommai, who participated in a Muslim program and asked if he can be called Bommaiullah Khan based on the outfit in the photo. Also, photos of Gadkari, Ashok and Shettar were tweeted and asked if they can be called Muslim names.
Higher Education Minister Dr CN Ashwathnarayan also defended CT Ravi’s claim of calling Siddaramaiah as Sidramullah Khan.
