Raising objection against the Maharashtra government's plan to rope in actor Salman Khan to raise awareness on COVID-19 vaccination, Bharatiya Janata Party leader Ram Kadam on Wednesday said that it is a "polarisation stunt" of the state government to attract a specific community.
He cleared that the BJP particularly does not have a problem with Salman Khan, "but the way in which he is being brought, raises questions."
"Is the MVA and Congress bringing Salman Khan for polarising people as there are elections in several states?" Kadam questioned.
"Although people across the country took part in the massive COVID-19 vaccination drive and most of them have been vaccinated and cooperated well, so is it a polarisation stunt by MVA and its partner Congress to polarise people and attract a specific community," he reiterated.
Earlier today, Maharashtra Health Minister Rajesh Tope as well as Mumbai Mayor Kishori Pednekar said that the state government is in talks with religious leaders and celebrities like Salman Khan to raise awareness on COVID-19 vaccination.
