Subramanian Swamy Says He Can’t Be A Chowkidar Because He Is A Brahmin. Twitterati Is Angry

Narendra Modi as a PM has run several campaigns in India, some of which have received a mixed response and others have been received positively. Ahead of the General elections 2019, Modi has announced the “Main Bhi Chowkidar” campaign where everyone especially BJP leaders are using Chowkidar ahead of their name.

However, BJP MP Subramanian Swamy says that he can’t be a chowkidar because he is a Brahmin by the cast.

In a recent interview with a Tamil News Channel, Swamy made the controversial statement which is already being called “casteist” by many people on Twitter.

Swamy was asked why he hasn’t used the term Chowkidar ahead of his name on Twitter and answering the question, he said that he cannot become a Chowkidar because he is a Brahmin. He will give the orders and Chowkidar has to execute it, he said.

मैं भी ब्राह्मण हुं। शायद इन्हें ब्राम्हण का अर्थ पता नहीं। देश, समाज, हर धर्म का चौकीदार ( रक्षक) होता है ब्राम्हण। दूषमनो का काल होता है ब्राम्हण। कर्म से ब्राम्हण, क्षत्रिय, वैश्य व क्षूद्र बनो। किस कुल मे जन्म हुआ यह बड़ी बात नहीं। कर्म से महान बनो
