Hardik Patel reacts about the video; “I am yet to marry and I am not impotent”

“I am yet to marry and I am not impotent”

“Dirty politics has begun now. It will not make any difference to me by defaming me. But the image of the Gujarati women is being tarnished.”

As Gujarat Assembly elections draws near, politics in the state has also started getting dirtier. The target is, of course, Hardik Patel, the chief of Patidar Anamat Andolan Samiti (PAAS).

With Hardik Patel and the Congress likely to reach ahead of the Assembly polls, a sleaze video has become viral on the social media. It contains a clip of a man engaging in some intimate moments with a woman. The time stamp on the video is of May 16.

Hardik Patel got involved in a controversy on Monday as two sex video clips allegedly showing him with a woman went viral on social media.

About 10 days ago, Hardik had predicted that a doctored sex CD would be out soon to defame him.

Hardik dismissed the video clips as part of “dirty politics of BJP”.

A week after he claimed that “the BJP will use a sex CD” to defame him, a video of man resembling Patidar quota leader Hardik Patel with an unknown woman in “what looks like a hotel room” went viral on Monday.  Hardik has accused the BJP of resorting to “dirty politics” and dubbed the video a “morphed footage”. The ruling BJP denied any role in the controversy.

Reacting to the video, which was supposedly leaked on YouTube, Hardik tweeted: “This is the start of dirty politics. You can defame

me, it makes no difference, but this is insulting women of Gujarat.” A few hours later, he added, “Anybody can do what they want to. I am not backing off. I will put up a tough fight. The 23-year-old Hardik is growing older. Several crores are being spent to defame me.”

Later speaking with the media, the convener of the Patidar Anamat Andolan Samiti said that his “friends” in the BJP had warned him about such a video in the making. “I have close friends who are in the BJP. We may not have similar political views, but they are my friends. They told me that the BJP has planned to defame me and was filming a sex video with a young man who resembled me. Earlier, too, they had released a clip of a man with a foreigner woman, but this time they did not want to leave any doubt over the appearance of the man. So, they groomed the man to resemble me, trained him to have my gait and mannerism and then filmed this video.”

Hardik said that while he was becoming “used to the malice”, he was “sad” that a woman has been disrespected. “They used a woman to defame me like this. It is very sad. They have no respect for people. When an honest person like Sanjay Joshi (BJP leader) could be trapped in a fake sex scandal, I am only a young man.”

Hardik said that he is “amused” that the BJP is so “petrified” of his existence in the political sphere. He said, “They have ruled Gujarat for 22 years and I am not even eligible to contest the polls. But, saheb is so concerned about my presence that they have to resort to these cheap tricks to defame me. It does not matter. They are actually making me bigger than even I consider myself to be. But, I also know that in the coming days more such videos will emerge trying to malign other PAAS leaders too.”

Mansukh Mandaviya, Union Minister of Fertilisers and Chemicals on the other hand, that the BJP had nothing to do with the tape and 

instead targeted the Opposition Congress.  “It is an insult to the dignity of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, of Gujarat, and of women by saying that the person shown in the video has Sardar Patel’s DNA,” he told the media.  He said that if Hardik felt offended over the tape, he can file a police complaint. “I on behalf of the country condemn the incident, and the Congress should not involve in such things… I praise the media that it has not showing the blacked out portion of the CD,” he said. He also denied that such abuse practice was initiated by the BJP against its own leaders in the past.  He said people of Gujarat will never support such things and that the Congress should stop “frequently insulting Sardar Patel”.

CD DOCTORED, SAYS HARDIK

Releasing a statement on the issue, Hardik said, “I am yet to marry and I am not impotent. BJP is stooped to low-level politics. I had earlier said BJP will release a sex CD to malign me. They may release more such stuff. This is proof that BJP thinks Hardik Patel has become so big that he is a force.”

Hardik Patel claimed that the viral sex CD has been uploaded from out of India and claimed that it was doctored. “It is a doctored video and morphed. BJP will fail in abusing my name in society.”

On November 10, the Patidar quota agitation leader had expressed the apprehension that the BJP might try to defame him with a sex CD in order to make electoral gains.

“The BJP has prepared a doctored sex CD to defame me and it will be released just before the election. What else can one expect from the BJP? So just wait, watch and enjoy,” Hardik said.

Asked how he learnt about the CD, Hardik said, “This is typical of the BJP.”

 

SEX CD IN 2015

It is not for the first time that attempts have been made to tarnish Hardik Patel’s image. In 2015, a sex CD was released soon after he had launched the agitation to demand quota in government jobs for the Patel-Patidars.

Hardik Patel had instantly rose to fame on the national scale by holding an agitation in Ahmedabad on August 25, 2015 under PAAS’ banner to demand reservation for Patels in the OBC category. The rally turned violent by the time it ended, killing nine people and damaging property worth crores, forcing the Gujarat government to summon eight columns of Army.
