BJP's Rajya Sabha member Anil Bonde has said Congress leader Ra🍌hul Gandhi's tongue should be singed as what he said about reservation was "dangerous".

His remark came in the wake of Shiv Sena's Buldhana MLA Sanjay Gaikwad kicking up a row by announcing a Rs 11 lakh reward to anyone ꦓchopping off Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's tongue for his remarks on scrapping the reservation system.

During his recent visit to the USA, Gandhi told students at the Georgetown University there that the Congress would think of scrapping reservation when "India is a fair place", which he said i🐬s not the case right now.

Reacting to Gaikwad's statement of chopping off Gandhi's tongue, BJP leader Bonde said at Amravati in Maharashtra on Tue🐭sday, "The language of cutting tongue is not proper, but wh𒀰at Rahul ji said against reservation is dangerous."

"Hence, if anyone speaks anything absurd in a foreign country, then rather than chopping off his tongue, it should be singed. It is necessary to certainly singe the tongues of such people - be it Rahul Gandhi, Dnyanesh Maharao or Shyam Maꦡnav and people who hurt the feelings of the 'bahujan' and majority," he said.

Maharao, an author, is accused of m♏aking derogatory comments on Hindu deities recently, while Manav is an anti-superstition crusader.

A video of Bonde's remarks also went v🗹iral o☂n social media.
