Holding fire torches in their hands, BJP MLA Raja Singh and his followers raised slogans of “go back, go back, Chinese virus go back”.
It appears that Tiger Raja Singh, a BJP MLA from Goshamahal in Telangana did not completely hear Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s speech on Friday.
For those reading this article, PM Modi had requested all of India to stand together in solidarity and switch off their lights at home. “To dispel the darkness, let us light candles and diyas while maintaining social distance,” the PM added.
Looks like MLA Tiger only heard the diyas and candles bit of the speech, and thought his Diwali came early.
