A BJP MLA started a new controversy as he said that star cricketer Virat Kohli is not a patriot because he chose Italy as his marriage destination.

"Virat has earned money and fame in India and he went to Italy to get married. Bhagwan Ram got married on this land, Bhagwan Krishna got married on this land and this man went to Italy to get married. He cannot be a 'Rashtra Bhakta,' said Panna La Shakya, BJP MLA from Guna, Madhya Pradesh

He added that Kohli cannot be an inspiration to Indians  as only those who are loyal to their country and swore by it deserved to be inspiration. He said the same about Anushka Sharmaas well. Shakya was inaugurating Prime Minister's Skill India Centre in Guna

In a horrible hint, Shakya said that, dancers of Italy have become billionaires in India while Kohli took India's wealth out of the country.

Bhartiya Janata Party's outburst against the cricket star and celebrated captain of Indian cricket team came as a surprise as BJP MLA questioned Virat's patriotism

The opposition Congress party has described Sakya's outburst against Virat Kohli the direct impact of the outcome of the Gujarat polls.

"The message from Gujarat is clear. The BJP now realises that they cannot survive in Madhya Pradesh without raking up the issue of nationalism. Their supreme leader questioned the integrity of  a former army chief, a former prime minister and a former vice president to divide society and win votes in Gujarat," said Congress spokesman Pankaj Chaturvedi while talking to India Today.

Chaturvedi termed the rant of the BJP MLA deplorable and said that such tactics won't help Bhartiya Janata Party in Madhya Pradesh.

Madhya Pradesh goes to the polls by the end of 2018 and the Shivraj Singh led BJP government that has been rocked by a series of scams including the VYAPAM scam is fighting an anti incumbency of 15 years. Shivraj has already lost two by elections of Bhind and Chitrakoot recently.
