According to the BJP leader’s testimony, the argument began after Danish Ali objected to chanting the ‘Bharat Mata ki Jai’ slogan. He argued why the BSP leader has an issue in praising the country.
Talking to ANI, Dhillon said, “This heated argument erupted on saying ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’. He (Danish Ali) asked us not to chant the slogan. Saying ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’ is not a wrong thing.”
On the other hand, Danish Ali claimed that the fight was not over chanting the slogan but because the BJP leader was trying to turn it into a party event as they always do.
