Aligarh (UP): A local woman BJP leader purportedly slapped a girl here for being friendly with a youth from the minority community, a video of which went viral on social media. The youth in question was arrested on charges of “obscenity” in public place and released later on bail, according to police officials.
The incident, in which BJP’s Aligarh city convenor Sangeeta Varshney allegedly slapped the girl twice, took place on Tuesday when she saw her having tea with the youth, according to the police.
In the video which has gone viral on social media, Varshney is heard saying, “Tere ko samajhmeinnahiaataakaun Hindu hai, kaun Musalmaan hai. Pyaar sesamajhaarahee hoon, samajh hee meinnahi aa raha. (Don’t you understand who is a Hindu and who is a Muslim. I am politely making this clear, but even then it seems that you are not getting it).”
When contacted today, Varshney told PTI, “I do not have any problems with Muslims. But, we have a problem with their policy of alluring Hindu girls (Humme Musalmaano se koi shikayatnahi hai, hummeunkibargalaane ki neetiseshikayat hai).”
