Modi distorting statement to play backward caste card: Mayawati

Raising doubts over Modi being a backward, Mayawati asked, “Why did Modi not declare his caste if he is from backward community? It makes clear that he is not from backward community. Even if it is assumed that he is from backward community, I will ask BJP what they have done for the backward community.

I want to ask Narendra Modi what did he do for backward community during the six years of NDA rule.” Making fun of Modi's statement that he will go back to selling tea, she asked, “Where will he sell tea?” “If he fails to become Prime Minister he will go back to his Chief Ministership of his state,” she added.
