The statement comes a day after Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra offered prayers at the Maa Durga Temple and the Kashi Vishwanath Temple in Varanasi.

Priyanka Gandhi Vadra keeps 'changing colours like a chameleon' in anticipation of the upcoming Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections, said Telangana BJP leader NV Subhash. The statement comes a day after Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra offered prayers at the Maa Durga Temple and the Kashi Vishwanath Temple in Varanasi. The Congress leader also spoke at a "Kisan Nyay" rally in the Rohania district of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's parliamentary seat.

In an interview with ANI, NV Subhash stated, "Priyanka Gandhi has begun to praise Hinduism. Gandhi's family had never considered Hindu households. Priyanka Gandhi married a Christian, and her mother is a Christian, but her grandpa is Muslim. As a result, there is no foundation for her to claim Hinduism. The BJP will triumph by a landslide. She is concerned that her party's vote bank would be destroyed if Congress does not form an alliance."

"She did everything with the 2022 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections in mind. It demonstrated how the Congress party was using farmers' agitation for political gain. Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi become Hindu overnight after touring temples in Uttar Pradesh," he added.
