BJP leader denies blankets to Muslim women at distribution drive

A former Bharatiya Janata Party MP from Rajasthan refused to give blankets allegedly to Muslim women during a distribution drive, saying that “those who abuse Modi” did not have the right to receive them.

A video that surfaced on social media on Sunday showed the former MP, Sukhbir Singh Jaunapuria, taking back blankets purportedly from Muslim women in the Kareda Buzurg village in Tonk district. It is unclear when the video was recorded.

“Listen to me, those who abuse [Prime Minister Narendra] Modi have no right to take [blankets],” Jaunapuria was heard saying in a video shared by Congress MP Harish Chandra Meena. “If you feel bad, so be it.”

Jaunapuria had shared an edited version of the video showing him distributing blankets to women.
