As Sec 377 is in force, Rahul Gandhi must marry before we hug him: BJP MP

Gandhi was severely criticised by BJP leaders for hugging Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the no-confidence motion against the government last week


Politics News: A day after Rahul Gandhi said Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MPs step back on seeing him as they fear he might hug them, BJP MP Nishikant Dubey on Thursday took a jibe, saying the leaders might be divorced by their wives if they embrace the Congress president as "Section 377 hasn't been scrapped as yet".

Dubey said BJP MPs can hug Gandhi only when the Congress president gets married.

"Why should we hug him. Section 377 hasn't been scrapped as yet. And our wives will also give divorce to us. If Rahul Gandhi gets married, then we will hug him," he said.  

The IPC's Section 377 criminalises sex among people of the same gender.
On Wednesday, at an event, Gandhi said the BJP's MPs take "two steps back" on seeing him fearing he might embrace them.

Gandhi was severely criticized by BJP leaders for hugging Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the no-confidence motion against the government last week.

The Congress chief had said he might have a difference of opinion with the ruling party leaders and he can fight them, but he doesn't need to hate them.
