Campaigning is in full swing in Madhya Pradesh with state elections slated to be held later this month. The battle continues to be waged on social media, where party leaders and supporters have been targeting each other fiercely.<\/span><\/p>\n

A video of former Madhya Pradesh chief minister and Congress leader Kamal Nath is doing the rounds on social media platforms. In the clip, he is seen addressing a Muslim audience. The audio clip goes as follows, \u201cI was thinking about talking to you all for a long time. Just remember that what I\u2019m about to say should not leave this venue. <\/span>We are the most worried and concerned about you. Congress wants the support of our Muslim brothers so that in the future we can make decisions in your favour. I assure you, continue supporting us, we will get you land for your mosque and will also take a look at [Article] 370. Look, I can’t say everything openly, just understand this much\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While sharing this video, it is being claimed that Kamal Nath, Congress’s chief ministerial candidate in Madhya Pradesh made these remarks. While sharing the video, BJP leader and former Gaya MP Hari Manjhi wrote that this was the reality of the Congress party. (<\/span>Archived link<\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n
