"BJP did not ask for your religion while allotting houses to people. BJP did not ask for your caste while constructing toilets. If 100 houses have been allotted, 30 will be allotted to the Muslims," he said.

"We would not get their votes because we removed Article 370, built temples in Ayodha and Kashi and will build a temple in Mathura also," he added.
