Akhilesh Yadav Jabs BJP Over Delay In Choosing Chief, Amit Shah Replies

The Lok Sabha today witnessed a banter between Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav after the latter fired a barb at the ruling BJP for its delay in electing a party president.

Addressing the House during the debate on the Waqf Amendment Bill, Mr Yadav said the BJP was facing infighting as leaders compete to prove who the "worse Hindu" is. "I am not saying this just like that. The party, which claims to be the world's largest party, could not elect its national president," he said.
