Haryana Home Minister Anil Vij used the Congress’s ‘Ladki Hoon Lad Sakti Hoon’ slogan on Friday to take a dig at the opposition party after Kumari Selja was replaced as its state unit chief.

Claiming that there is a huge difference between the words and the deeds of the Congress, Vij, in a tweet, said: “The Congress, which had raised the slogan of ‘Ladki Hoon Lad Sakti Hoon’ in Uttar Pradesh, could not tolerate Kumari Selja in Haryana and removed her from her post in an indifferent manner.”

लड़की हूं लड़ सकती हूं का उत्तरप्रदेश में नारा देने वाली कांग्रेस हरियाणा में कुमारी शैलजा को बर्दाश्त नहीं कर सके और बेरुखी के साथ उनको उनके पद से हटा दिया गया । यह है कांग्रेस का असली चेहरा । कांग्रेस में महिलाओं का सम्मान को दर्शाता है। कांग्रेस कथनी और करनी में बहुत अंतर है ।

“This is the real face of the Congress that shows how women are respected in that party,” he added.

The Congress revamped its Haryana unit on Wednesday, appointing former legislator and Bhupinder Singh Hooda loyalist Udai Bhan as its chief, replacing Selja.

Selja, a former Union minister, was appointed the Haryana Congress president weeks before the state Assembly polls in 2019.
