Congress Leader: Rs. 5 lakh for “Cutting off BJP MLA Ram Kadam tongue”

In the middle of a huge uproar over Maharashtra BJP lawmaker Ram Kadam’s comments on “kidnapping girls” for jilted young men, a Congress leader has tossed in a new controversial comment. Subodh Saoji, a former Maharashtra minister, has been caught on camera announcing a reward for anyone who “cuts off Ram Kadam’s tongue” for his deplorable statement on girls.

In a video of an event at Buldhana in eastern Maharashtra on Thursday, Subodh Saoji is heard saying that Ram Kadam’s statement was unbecoming of a legislator. “…and therefore, I am announcing a Rs. 5-lakh reward for anyone who comes forward and cuts off his tongue,” he says.
