New Delhi, Feb 13 (Zee News): Taking a dig at Congress chief, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said on Tuesday that it was a victory for the BJP that Rahul Gandhi was now a 'janeu-dhari Hindu' (the one who wears Brahminical thread).
"It is a victory for us that the very same Rahul Gandhi whose ancestors used to say that they are 'accidental Hindus', today says that he is a ' janeu-dhari Hindu'," he said in Tripura's Sabroom.
On Monday, Rahul had defended his visits to temples and religious places, asserting that he would continue it.
"I like going to temples, wherever I get a religious place I go there. I feel good and feel happy and I will continue (to go)," he had told reporters in poll-bound Karnataka.
Rahul was responding to BJP state president BS Yeddyurappa's "Election Hindu" jibe at him.
