BJP spokesperson Shahnawaz Hussain today said that he is not afraid of a threat to kill him for praising Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
"I don't care for the threat and am hardly bothered about it. I will continue to speak for BJP and (Prime Minister Narendra) Modi," Mr Hussain told mediapersons in Patna in response to threat calls from a phone number from Dubai telling him to stop praising PM Modi.
Mr Hussain, who arrived in Patna to attend a party function, said the person who threatened him was anti-national and a coward.
"I never get tense over such threats because I have to work for the party and the country," he said.
Two calls were received by Mr Hussain on his mobile number on Saturday night. He was threatened that he will be killed if he did not stop praising PM Modi. A case has been lodged.
