“ARABIAN HORSE”:
Nagpur MP Vishal Muttemwar, taking a dig at former BJP National President Nitin Gadkari, comapared him with an Arabian Horse who runs faster but bogs down and gets tired immediately after the race. Gadkari also ran fast but was thrown out of contest. “Gadkari was in race with RSS behind him. But like Arabian Horse, he too ran fast but got tired and was thrown out of the contest. He should blame himself for remaining out of national politics. Otherwise, Gadkari would have been the BJP’s Prime Ministerial candidate,“ Muttemwar sarcastically said.
