Vote for ally Congress’ even if its candidate is from Pakistan urges Keshav Maurya; says ‘pratyashi koi bhi ho, panja ko vote dena'

The grand old party’s ally Mahan Dal chief Keshav Dev Maurya urged the people to vote for the Congress candidate in the upcoming national polls and not to forget its election symbol ‘Panja’ (hand). Addressing rally in Moradabad in Uttar Pradesh Maurya asked people to vote for Congress if the candidate was from Pakistan.

In the rally titled Mahan Dal ki Aabhaar, senior Congress leaders including Uttar Pradesh Congress Committee chief Raj Babbar, Rashid Alvi and Naseemuddin Siddiqui were present.

"Pratyashi mat dekhna, haath ka panja (Congress' election symbol) dekh lena, usi pe vote de dena, pratyashi koi bhi ho, accha ho, kharab ho, Pakistan se bhi aake lade, Mahan Dal ko koi aitraaz nahi hoga (Don't look at the candidate. Just take note of the hand symbol and vote for it. Let the candidate be a bad guy or even a Pakistani coming to contest elections. Mahan Dal will not have a problem)," Maurya said.
