They insult an OBC PM every day… For Droupadi Murmu, a daughter of Odisha from a tribal neighborhood, the then chief of the Congress (in Lok Sabha) Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury used objectionable language. Not too long ago, Rahul Gandhi sat in his chair earlier than the President did. He didn’t even present the courtesy to stay standing whereas she was standing,” he mentioned.
