The former Rajya Sabha member from TMC joined BJP ahead of the 2021 West Bengal assembly elections and is now campaigning for the party in Tripura. He also claimed that the party is not anti-Muslim. While he was at the airport, the actor said that BJP was never anti-minority and the party wants the betterment of India’s Muslims.
His remarks invited backlash from TMC who alleged that BJP is trying to do communal politics for votes and that if they actually want better for Muslims, then they should remove the CAA and NRC.
Meanwhile, BJP’s big faces Smriti Irani, party president JP Nadda and Tripura CM Manik Saha have also held their public meetings and rallies in the state.
