My father dances better than Swaraj, says Omar
Chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir Omar Abdullah on Tuesday took a dig at Sushma Swaraj who danced with her party colleagues at Raj Ghat.
He tweeted that his father was a better dancer than her. “Having now seen the videos of (Sushma Swaraj) dancing, I have no doubt at all that my dad is a better dancer than Sushma Swaraj. Glad dance now acceptable protest,” Omar tweeted at 3.25 PM on Tuesday.
Three-time chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir Farooq Abdullah was recently seen dancing on a Kashmiri folk song in a one minute video. The video was a hit as it garnered many viewers on social networking site Facebook. Swaraj, leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, danced with her Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) workers at the 24-hour-long protest at the Raj Ghat on Sunday.
This sparked a controversy as Congress accused her of hurting the sanctity of the place. Congress spokesperson Manish Tewari commented: “At the samadhi of the Father of the Nation, if you are going to dance, what kind of sanctity of the place are you maintaining?” In response, Swaraj tweeted: “This was around 2 in the (Sunday) morning. I stepped in for a brief moment to boost the morale of our party workers.”
