Eid means festival: Congress after party President's 'Diwali khushiyo ka Eid hai' remark

Defending Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge's "Diwali khushiyo ka Eid hai" remark, party MP Pawan Khera said, "The word 'Eid' literally means 'festival'." "Those making a big deal out of Kharge ji's statement are semantically ignorant," he added. This comes after BJP criticised Congress over Kharge's remark and called the party "anti-Hindu" and "anti-Sanatan".
