MUMBAI: Responding to PM Narendra Modi's call to BJP leaders to "reach out to Muslim sisters on the occasion of Raksha Bandhan", BJP state secretary Haji Haider Azam is organising a meeting of at least 25 Muslim "sisters" with DCM Devendra Fadnavis on Wednesday.
The Muslim women will tie rakhis on Fadnavis's wrist and pray for his longevity. "Modiji rightly asked BJP functionaries to reach out to Muslim women though we have been doing this every year for quite some time," said Azam.
