AHMEDABAD: As Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal is visiting the poll-bound state, banners terming him as "anti-Hindu" and showing him wearing a skull cap surfaced in several prominent cities in Gujarat on Saturday.
Kejriwal is in Gujarat to campaign for his party ahead of the Assembly elections. Along with Kejriwal's pictures, some banners carried lines like "I consider Hindu religion as madness", while some others had "anti-Hindu Kejriwal go back" message.
These banners cropped up in Ahmedabad, Rajkot, Surat and Vadodara cities, a day after a controversy erupted over a video clip showing Aam Aadmi Party's Delhi minister Rajendra Pal Gautam at a "religious conversion" event where hundreds could be heard taking an oath denouncing Hindu deities. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has slammed the minister and accused the AAP of hurting the sentiments of Hindus.
