"Some MPs may say that Pakistan-occupied Kashmir should go to Pakistan... Leaders of our country hold discussions with Pakistan and say Modiji should be removed... Congress leaders say the Prime Minister should be removed," said Mahajan, MP from Mumbai North Central who also heads the Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha.
