BJP leader and Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said that his suspension from the party was “strategic”, also termed the ‘Neech’ remark made by Congress leader Mani Shankar Aiyar against Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a “deliberate casteist statement”.
Mani’s attack on Prime Minister is a deliberate casteist statement, a convenient apology, a strategic suspension. People should see through this game,” Jaitley said in a tweet.
He also said that Aiyar’s remark against the Prime Minister displayed a mindset that only one elite family can rule the country. The Congress Party has challenged the weaker and backward sections of India by calling the Prime Minister as ‘Neech’.
Jaitley also said that the strength of India’s Democracy will be displayed when a person of humble background politically defeats the dynasty and its representatives.
Aiyar, on Thursday, called Prime Minister Modi a “neech aadmi” who does “dirty politics” after the latter targeted the Congress saying that parties seeking votes in BR Ambedkar’s name tried to erase his contribution to nation building the party.
