Why no Army Jawan martyred from Gujarat so far? asks Akhilesh Yadav

Jhansi: Former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister and Samajwadi Party President Akhilesh Yadav on Wednesday stirred controversy when he asked if any Indian Army jawan from Gujarat has martyred so far.

Akhilesh accused the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led BJP government of playing politics in the name of nationalism.

He said, "We have seen Jawans from Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and South India sacrificing their lives for the nation. But why no jawan hailing Gujarat has martyred?"

Akhilesh's controversial statement has put him in bad light as irked Twitteratis have started a trend #AkhileshInsultsMartyrs.
