Dalits can't shake hands with Mayawati, says Cong

Azamgarh, UP, April 8: After BSP supremo Mayawati's allegation that Rahul Gandhi bathes with special soap after every visit to Dalits' houses, Congress hit back by charging that Dalits cannot even shake hands with her.

AICC general secretary Digvijai Singh said that ‘Dalits can not even shake hands with Mayawati nor can they meet her’.

"Mayawati's statement does not behove of her stature and position. Congress has always fought for the Dalit cause and Rahul is only following the Congress' tradition", Singh said.
