BJP leaders are accused of politically using the word Jihad, but the surprise is that the word Vote Jihad has been invented by a Congress leader. Her name is Maria Alam Khan. She is the niece of Congress leader and former Union Minister Salman Khurshid who is in the Samajwadi Party. Maria was addressing a public meeting in Farrukhabad.
She appealed to the people of the Muslim community to vote unitedly and said, come together and do vote jihad, do vote jihad to overthrow the Sanghi government. Fight for votes very quietly. Note one thing, in this appeal she is asking the people to unite and wage silent vote jihad against the Sanghi government. That means vote jihad should be silent "chup chap jihad karo, shor na ho".
