ALIGARH (UP): In controversial comments, BJP leader Raghuraj Singh has suggested that Muslim men wear hijabs made of tarpaulin to avoid any inconvenience during Holi celebrations on Friday.
The festival of Holi this year coincides with the second Friday of the month of Ramzan.
Singh, who is chairman of the high-power advisory committee of the labour and employment ministry in Uttar Pradesh, and enjoys minister of state equivalent rank, said, “The administration is on alert in view of Holi celebrations and for the ‘Juma namaz’ (Friday prayers) but some people have their objections”.
