'INDI thugbandhan' spreading misinformation: Union Minister Ashwini Choubey
Speaking to ANI, Choubey said, "They (the INDIA Alliance) have ill intentions. PM told the public about their intentions. Their 'niyat' forms their 'niti'. They have done the same to date. The 'INDI thugbandhan' is spreading misinformation, be it on the issue of reservations or reservations for Muslims."

Darbhanga (Bihar) [India], May 4 (ANI): Union Minister Ashwini Kumar Choubey poked fun at the INDIA bloc with regard to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's "mangalsutra" remark, claiming that PM Modi was merely informing the public about the "ill intentions" of the INDI bloc and alleged that the "INDI thugbandhan" is spreading misinformation over the issue of reservations.
Speaking to ANI, Choubey said, "They (the INDIA bloc) have ill intentions. PM told the public about their intentions. Their 'niyat' forms their 'niti'. They have done the same to date. The 'INDI thugbandhan' is spreading misinformation, be it on the issue of reservations or reservations for Muslims."
Amid a debate on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's remarks that "Congress wants to snatch women's Mangalsutra," the Prime Minister reiterated earlier that he had put the truth before the country that Congress is hatching a deep conspiracy to snatch your property and distribute it to its special people.
Addressing a public meeting in Rajasthan last week, PM Modi said that his speech had created panic in the entire Congress and the INDI bloc.
This came after Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while addressing a public rally on April 21, charged Congress and said if Congress is voted to power, then they will conduct a wealth survey to seize the assets of people and take away their life-long savings.
PM Modi said your mangalsutra will not be safe under Congress rule.
While stressing the importance of 'Mangalsutra' (traditional Indian jewellery worn by married Indian women) for women, he said that no government has the power to snatch it away.
"When they (Congress) were in government, they said that Muslims have the first right over India's resources. So, they will distribute this wealth (property and gold) among those having more children, among illegal immigrants...this urban Naxal thinking won't even spare your Mangalsutra," the PM said.
The Congress alleged that PM Modi and the BJP have deliberately and repeatedly invoked religion, religious symbols, and religious sentiments in their election campaigns, and the same is being done without any impunity.
40 seats in Bihar are undergoing polls in all seven phases. In 2019, the BJP-led NDA swept the state by winning 39 out of 40 seats, while Congress won just one seat.
RJD, a formidable force in the state, failed to open its account. (ANI)
