Did Maneka Gandhi just issue a veiled threat to the Muslims of her constituency?

Transcript

00:00When a Muslim comes for work, I think, no, let him stay, what difference does it make?

00:09After all, a job is also a bargaining chip.

00:12Isn't that right?

00:13It's not that we are all the sixth children of the Mahatma Gandhi.

00:30We are all the sixth children of the Mahatma Gandhi.

01:01I am winning.

01:04I am winning with the help of people, with the love of people.

01:11But if my victory is without the Muslims, then I will not feel very good.

01:18Because I tell you this much, then the heart becomes sour.

01:23Then when a Muslim comes for work, then I think, no, let him stay, what difference does it make?

01:29After all, a job is also a bargaining chip.

01:32Isn't that right?

01:33It's not that we are all the sixth children of the Mahatma Gandhi.

01:37That we will come, we will keep giving, we will keep giving, and then we will be beaten in the elections.

01:44Isn't that right?

01:46You have to recognize this.

01:48This victory will be without you, it will be with you.

01:51And you will have to spread this thing everywhere.

01:55When I have come with the hands of friendship.

01:58And if you ask in Pilibhit, if you ask a single person in Pilibhit on the phone, how was Menka Gandhi there?

02:06If you feel that you will be insulted by us anywhere, then don't vote for us.

02:12But if you feel that we have come with open hands and open hearts, that you will need me tomorrow.

02:19I have passed this election.

02:21Now you will need me.

02:23Now if you want to put Neve for need, then this is the time.

02:28When your polling booth results come, and in that result 100 votes will come out.

02:36Or 50 votes will come out.

02:38So after that, when you come for work, that will happen with me.

02:42Do you understand?
