MP Polls: Cong-BJP Spar Over ‘Controversial’ Kamal Nath Video

A war of words has erupted over a video of Congress’ Kamal Nath allegedly endorsing criminals.

A war of words erupted after the Bharatiya Janata Party tweeted a video of Madhya Pradesh Congress chief Kamal Nath allegedly favouring candidates with criminal records, if they can win.

The BJP’s Madhya Pradesh wing on Saturday, November 3, tweeted a video of Nath allegedly endorsing candidates with criminal records, if they are capable of drawing votes and winning elections.

In the video, Kamal Nath is purportedly heard saying that he doesn’t care if a candidate has any number of cases against him, as long as he was capable of winning polls.

“Some say he has four cases against him, I say let there be five. I’m saying this very clearly, I want those who can win,” he allegedly said.
