Shah slams Baghel over Mahadev app, ‘love jihad’

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday attacked Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel, alleging he had insulted Lord Shiva by naming a betting app (referring to the Mahadev app scam) after the deity.

Addressing a rally in Bemetara, Chhattisgarh, Shah also alleged that the area had become a centre of “love jihad”, and claimed that if the BJP comes to power, no one would dare to indulge in such activities.

Chhattisgarh goes to the polls for the second phase on November 17.
