Modi is a RSS goon and Rajnath is his slave, says Beni Prasad Verma

Another personal vitriolic attack has added to a series of hate speeches this election season. This time, Congress leader Beni Prasad Verma has targeted Bharatiya Janata Party Prime Ministerial candidate Narendra Modi and has called him a gunda (goon) of the RSS.

Beni Prasad has also attacked BJP President Rajnath Singh, calling him a slave. “Mahatma Gandhi was killed because of the RSS and the BJP. Modi is a goon of the RSS and Rajnath is his slave,” Beni Prasad said.

Earlier on Tuesday too, Beni Prasad had hit out at Modi and had said that the recent developments in the BJP show that the party is being completely controlled by its Prime Ministerial candidate Narendra Modi. “The BJP is insulting its senior leaders. The RSS and BJP have been sold out in the hands of Narendra Modi,” Beni Prasad said.

Calling the BJP fascist, Beni Prasad said, “Our party has never insulted any of our leaders. No other party has insulted its senior leaders like this This party has become fascist. The nation is not going to tolerate this.”

Meanwhile, Beni has been booked for the violation of Model Code of Conduct, the Gonda District Magistrate said on Tuesday. Beni organised a roadshow in Tarabganj tehsil on Monday evening in which the number of vehicles was beyond permissible limit, DM Vikas Gothalwal said.

The vehicles stopped at many places leading to traffic jam, he said adding that the in-charge officer of the flying squad lodged an FIR against Beni and his supporters.
