Telangana: BJP Youth Wing Protests Rahul Gandhi’s Remarks, Lathicharged by Police

Hyderabad: Hundreds of activists of the Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM), youth wing of the BJP, came out from the state BJP office at Nampally and nearby streets and staged a protest against Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, for his alleged controversial remarks about Hindus in Parliament recently.

The activists burnt an effigy of Rahul Gandhi and shouted slogans against the Congress. The police present in large numbers lathicharged the activists to disperse them. BJYM Telangana president S.
