New Delhi: For Union Minister Anant Kumar Hegde, the ‘Hindu girl’ remark does not seem to end.
Tehseen Poonawalla on Monday dragged himself between Hegde and Karnataka Congress chief Dinesh Gundu Rao‘s Twitter war over a Muslim wife.
Poonawalla posted a picture of him hugging his wife with a caption: “Good afternoon @AnantkumarH . See my hands are touching my hindu life ..Now do what u can !! It’s a dare sir!!”

The tweet got Poonawalla a lot of attention on the social media. Some lauded while others crictised him.
Poonawalla is married to Robert Vadra’s cousin Monica Vadera.
Hegde on Sunday at a public function had given a shocking statement, stating that “those who touch Hindu girls, their hands should be chopped off.”

GF, wife is ok Tehseen, but I'm sure you wouldn't want nor endorse any stranger touching a lady lasciviously. Siddaramaiah has pulled a lady's dupatta today, so I'm sure you wouldn't support his action.
