Minister of State Anurag Thakur was caught on camera at an election rally in Delhi chanting the first half of a slogan that usually concludes with a call to gun down traitors. In a widely shared video Mr Thakur, who was campaigning for Manish Chaudhary, the BJP candidate from North West Delhi's Rithala constituency, can be seen and heard chanting "desh ke gaddaron ko", to which the crowd enthusiastically replied "goli maaro sa***n ko"; the entire chant translates to "shoot down those betray the country".
