LUCKNOW: In an apparent jibe at SP leader Azam Khan, UP BJP chief Swatantra Dev Singh on Sunday said that the electorate of Rampur was faced with a candidate whose leader used to call "Bharat Mata" a "Dayan" (witch).
Addressing a rally in by poll bound Rampur, Singh said that it was a direct fight for the honor and respect of Mother India. "Every BJP worker was ready to lay down life for "Bharat Mata," he said, asserting that people of Rampur have been working for thousands of years with a commitment towards nation building and country's security.
