BJP leaders slam Aamir Khan over his 'intolerance' comments

Published on: 

The BJP leaders in Haryana continue to launch a scathing attack on actor Aamir Khan for his remarks on intolerance in the country.

Haryana senior Minister Anil Vij continued his attack on Aamir Khan on Wednesday saying that the actor is not worth being the brand ambassador of 'Incredible India' campaign.

The Minister also said that actors with such opinions should not be made brand ambassadors as they are "specialist in somersault".

“Incredible India not worth living - Aamir Khan. Don't make them Brand Ambassadors. They are just actors specialist in making somersault,” Haryana Health and Sports Minister Vij said in a tweet.

An ambassador of 'Incredible India', a Government's campaign to promote tourism, Khan was at the centre of a raging debate on Monday after he expressed “alarm and despondency” over the rise in incidents of intolerance in the last six to eight months.

The outspoken Minister Vij had a day before given a new twist to the intolerance issue, alleging some people were raking it up at Pakistan's behest to thwart India's chances of getting permanent membership of the UN Security Council.
