Union Minister Uma Bharti called herself an ‘ordinary and foolish creature’ in front of Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur.
“She is a great saint, don’t compare me with her, I’m just an ordinary and foolish creature,” the minister said on being asked if Pragya Thakur will take her place in Madhya Pradesh politics.
The BJP had fielded Malegaon blast case accused Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur from Bhopal for Lok Sabha Elections 2019.
Out on bail, Thakur has been discharged by a court on charges under the stringent Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) in the 2008 case but is still facing trial under other criminal provisions.
