"Congress' state chief is not able to tolerate an OBC CM," says MP CM Mohan Yadav

Gwalior (Madhya Pradesh) [India], May 1 (ANI): Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav on Wednesday came down heavily on state Congress chief Jitu Patawari saying he felt sad that the Congress president was not able to tolerate an OBC CM in the state.
CM Yadav made the remark in view of Patwari's statement "Mukhyamantri ji, kripya karke aap chullu bhar pani me doob maro (CM, you should be ashamed of yourself) in Madhya Pradesh's Gwalior on Wednesday.
"I am sad that Congress' state President is not able to tolerate an OBC Chief Minister. He (Jitu Patwari) is constantly using low standard language. Those who could not save their own candidate (referring to Indore candidate Akshay Kanti Bam) are questioning others. I hope he will stop doing this," CM Yadav said.
Earlier in the day, speaking to reporters in Bhopal, the Congress leader slammed CM Yadav saying he went to meet the family of minor rape victim in Jobat and the state government lodged an FIR against him.
"Honourable Chief Minister, a 10-year-old girl was raped by BJP workers in Jobat. I met with her family members and your government has filed an FIR against me. Meanwhile, an eight-year-old girl was raped in Bhopal. Will you (CM) wake up? They (state BJP government) filed a case for meeting the family members of the rape victim, if this is not the height of political arrogance then what is it," Patwari asked.
They (BJP) will not even allow them to meet the person who has been tortured and will save the torturer. This is the behaviour of the state government, the congress leader said.
"Please CM Yadav, you should be ashamed of yourself (kripya karke aap chullu bhar pani me doob maro). An FIR was filed against me because I met the family of the rape victim. I will keep meeting them even if you hang me," Patwari added.
Notably, an FIR was registered against Congress president Jitu Patwari and Congress MLA Vikrant Bhuria for allegedly disclosing the identity of family members of a minor rape victim by posting their pictures on social media.
Patwari and Bhuria along with their supporters met family members of the rape vitim at a village under the jurisdiction of Jobat police station on Sunday. (ANI)
