Rajnath asked why Mulayam, who ordered firing on Ram devotees, given Padma award, he leaves presser

A reporter asked Defence Minister Rajnath Singh why Mulayam Singh Yadav was given Padma Vibhushan, India's second-highest civilian honour, by BJP-led government. "There are several reasons for this. Let us see," Rajnath said and ended the press conference. Notably, BJP accused Mulayam, former CM of UP, of ordering police firing on Ram temple movement supporters in Ayodhya in 1990.
