What did Ajay Rai say?

Shiv Sena leader Shina NC said, ‘Congress party and Ajay Rai can go to any extent for media attention. When they do not believe in any government, they can fall to any extent. When the Indian government under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi will give a response to the terrorists, then their speech will stop. Till then they keep playing with toys and we will continue to do our work.
Cleaning of Congress
The Congress has clarified on Ajay Rai’s statement. Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said, ‘The Congress party made a statement in the CWC and we are all standing with that statement and this is the official statement of the Congress. It clearly states that we support any action taken by the government; In fact, we urge the government to take very decisive, strong action and take it fast.
