Screengrab from the viral video of Rahul Gandhi and George Ponnaiah's interaction
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi sparked a massive row as he met a controversial catholic priest George Ponnaiah in Kanyakumari amid Bharat Jodo Yatra.
BJP got yet another chance to take a jibe at Rahul Gandhi and this time it's about Congress’ ‘Bharat Jodo’ campaign. Recently, a video went viral that showed Rahul Gandhi conversing with George Ponniah, a pastor in Tamil Nadu’s Kanyakumari, where the pastor comments that Jesus the ‘only real god’. The video drew much criticism from the BJP members. Earlier this week, Rahul Gandhi launched ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’ - a cross-country padayatra covering nearly 3,570 kilometres over 150 days spanning 12 states.
Shehzad Poonawalla, the BJP spokesperson, shared the video on social media where Rahul Gandhi’s questions about Jesus, while the Pastor answered that Jesus is the real god who reveals himself in the human form, unlike other Shakti or powers.
A video clip of Rahul Gandhi has surfaced where he can be seen interacting with the controversial Tamil Nadu pastor and the conversation between them goes on:
Rahul Gandhi: Jesus is?
George Ponnaiah: Jesus is the revelation of the Father
Rahul Gandhi: But he is not God? or is he God?
George Ponnaiah: He’s God. He’s a son of God
Rahul Gandhi: Jesus is also God
Rahul Gandhi: So Jesus Christ is a form of God…?
George Ponnaiah: He is a real God. He’s like a real God. God reveals himself as a man, like a human person, not like Shakti and all.
BJP national spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla attacked Rahul Gandhi and questioned whether George Ponnaiah is Congress’ poster boy of Bharat Jodo? He stated that Congress is doing Bharat Jodo yatra with icons of ‘Bharat Todo’
George Ponnaiah who met Rahul Gandhi says “Jesus is the only God unlike Shakti (& other Gods) “

"It's Rahul Gandhi's Nafrat Jodo Abhiyan. Today they have made a person like George Ponnaiah the poster boy of Bharat Jodo Yatra who challenged, threatened Hindus, and said inappropriate things about Bharat Mata. Congress has a long history of being anti-Hindu".
Taking to Twitter, BJP's Sambit Patra asked Is this "Bharat Jodo"? He further went on to say, “Denouncing one religion for the appeasement of the other. This "Hindu Hatred" of Congress in general and Rahul, in particular, is no more a clandestine affair …Rahul wears it on his sleeves with pride! "Bharat-Todo" indeed by Rahul Gandhi!"
