Congress spokesman Meem Afzal had alleged that Kejriwal “whose politics originated with the backing of the RSS was trying to make Muslims a football” for electoral mileage.
Lauding Tauqeer Raza, the leader of the Ittehad-e-Millat Council, for his views on protecting cows expressed at the function, Digvijay Singh said that he had heard that he triggered communal riots, but the thoughts he expressed were a slap on the faces of those who make such allegations against him.
The Congress general secretary took a potshot at BJP saying that he constituted the first Gau Sewa Ayog in the country in Madhya Pradesh, but the later BJP government did politics on it and dissolved it.
Raza told reporters after the function that he was not bothered if people objected to his meeting Kejriwal.
