Anantkumar Hegde 'unfit' to be minister, deserves to be sacked: Rahul on controversial remarks

Hegde on Sunday had reportedly said at a public event that any hand that touches a Hindu girl "should not exist".

Criticised by Congress leader Dinesh Gundu Rao for his remarks, the Union Minister of State for Skill Development and Entrepreneurship tweeted, "I shall definitely answer this guy @dineshgrao's queries, before which could he please reveal himself as to who he is along with his achievements? I only know him as a guy who ran behind a Muslim lady."

Reacting to the reported remarks, Gandhi said, "This man is an embarrassment to every Indian. He's unfit to be a Union Minister and deserves to be sacked."
