Will BJP now give mafia don Dawood Ibrahim also a chance to join? asks Maha Congress

Mumbai, June 17 (UNI) Maharashtra Pradesh Congress Committee president Harshvardhan Sapkal today lashed out at the Bharatiya Janata Party, asking whether it was now going to give notorious don Dawood Ibrahim a chance to join the party, with Sudhakar Badgujar, who is allegedly linked to Dawood, having joined the BJP.
"The Bharatiya Janata Party considers itself the biggest party in the world, but the party that pretends to be powerful is giving admission to anyone. Till now, the BJP has given admission to only those whom it accused of corruption and also gave them ministerial posts. Now the BJP has given admission to that person who was linked to the mafia Dawood Ibrahim. Will the BJP now give entry to Dawood?," Sapkal said here today.
The Congress state president said that it is the BJP's prerogative to give entry to whomsoever it wants, but the BJP has no idea what it is doing while talking about Hindutva.
