Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani alleged that Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi himself signed the register for non-Hindus at Somnath temple and then blamed the BJP for orchestrating it.

The Indian Express quoted Rupani as saying, “You put down your own signature in the register and then questioned us (BJP). Everyone knows (Rahul’s) temple visits are only for election campaign.”

He further said that Akshrdham temple in New Delhi is only a few minutes away from Rahul’s farmhouse, but he has never visited it.
