Will clear Shaheen Bagh within one hour if BJP forms govt in Delhi, says Parvesh Verma

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ BJP MP Parvesh Verma has kicked off a row by claiming that if the BJP comes to power in Delhi then it will not only clear the Shaheen Bagh area of the anti-CAA protesters within an hour, but will also remove all existing mosques in his parliamentary constituency built on government land within a month.

While addressing a small crowd inside a room in the Vikaspuri Assembly constituency, BJP’s west Delhi MP said: “This is not just another election. It is an election to decide the unity of a nation. “If the BJP comes to power on February 11, you will not find a single protester within an hour.

And within a month, we will not spare a single mosque built on government land in my Lok Sabha constituency,” The gathering broke out in loud applause. The comment comes just a day after the BJP candidate from Hari Nagar Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga claimed the same while replying to a tweet of Arvind Kejriwal’s.

He said: “Talk to people who are raising slogans in name of Jinnah? Talk to those who are raising slogans for freedom from Hindus? Talk to those who are talking about ‘free Kashmir’? “And as far as the matter of reopening of roads, it will be thrown open as soon as the election results will be out on February 11.”
