A photo has been making rounds on the internet in which Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh can be seen having snacks with some people.
The caption of the picture read- “ये वही लोग हैं जो कहते थे कि मदरसों में आतंकी पलते हैं आज ये लोग वोट के लिए उन्ही मदरसों में ठूस ठूस कर खा रहे हैं।”
(Translation- These are the same people who used to say that terrorists are born in the Madarsa. Today these people are eating snacks in those madrasas for votes.)
 

The picture is shared by National Secretary of Samajwadi Party, Preeti Chobey.
