Obscene video involving Rajasthan minister goes viral, BJP raises cry for dismissal

An obscene video purportedly showing Rajasthan Minority Affairs Minister Saleh Mohammad with a woman has gone viral on social media, triggering a demand from the opposition BJP for his dismissal.

The clip on social media shows a video chat apparently between the minister and a woman in her undergarments. The conversation is not audible.

The BJP said that Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot should sack the minister.

“Ashok Gehlot ji, this is not the first time an objectionable video of your minister with a woman has gone viral. Will you dismiss minister Saleh Mohammad or spare him due to your greed for the vote bank,” the Rajasthan BJP Rajasthan tweeted.

Amit Malviya, in-charge of BJP’s national information and technology department, tweeted: “Saleh Mohammad is the son of Muslim community’s religious guru and former cabinet minister Ghazi Fakir, who has died. Saleh was made the minister because of him. The family has access to (Congress leader) Sonia Gandhi. I think Ashok Gehlot will not be able to do anything.”
