Major political controversy erupts in Rajasthan after BJP leader's remark on gurudwaras

Rajasthan BJP leader Sandeep Dayma has tendered an unconditional apology after his comments on gurudwaras did not go down well with the Sikh community in the poll-bound state.

Dayma, who was the BJP candidate from Tijara in the 2018 Assembly election, reportedly stated at a public meeting in Tijara on November 1 that Gurdwaras in the region had become 'open sores,' which should be uprooted.

He further stated that Alwar MP Baba Balak Nath, contesting the polls on a BJP ticket in Tijara, would complete the task.

Later, Dayma in his video apology said he wanted to refer to masjid in this speech but somehow said gurudwara.
