Senior Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh on Saturday slammed Delhi BJP chief Manoj Tiwari for his remark on Delhi Chief Minister, saying that Lord Hanuman's idol had to be 'washed' several times after Kejriwal touched it with his 'dirty' hands.

Accusing the Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) of believing in untouchability, the AAP leader said that even Lord Ram can not save the BJP party now.


Tiwari has stoked a controversy when he called Kejriwal a 'nakli bhakt' (fake devotee) and said that Lord Hanuman's idol was washed several times after he touched it.

Polling is currently going on in Delhi for the 70 Assembly seats and Model Code of Conduct is in effect in the city.

The city is witnessing a triangular contest among the ruling AAP, which won a landslide majority in the last elections, the BJP and the Congress. In the last poll, the AAP had won 67 seats, the BJP 3. Congress didn't open its account.

Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal led Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) is hoping to retain power for the second consecutive term. Similarly, the BJP is hopeful to gain a majority by cashing in on the popularity of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
