‘Can Rahul and Sonia Gandhi specify their caste and religion?’ BJP MP slams amid OBC remarks row

Harnath told ANI that the Congress cannot tolerate the fact that PM Modi comes from a backward class.

He was not born in a backward class, he belongs to the general caste. You tell this to every BJP worker," he said while addressing a gathering in Odisha's Jharsuguda.
