'Kerala may not see UDF make a come back': Amit Malviya takes a jibe at Rahul Gandhi

BJP IT Cell Chief Amit Malviya took a jibe at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi after the release of the Kerala Exit Polls 2021, remarking that the Wayanad MP would once again deliver a blooper for the Congress. As per the Republic-CNX Exit Polls, the present LDF is projected to make a comeback in the state trumping over the Congress-led UDF. 

Hitting out at Gandhi over his pre-poll campaigning where he spent a day with the fishermen in Kerala, Malviya remarked that sitting in the Opposition will give enough time for Rahul Gandhi 'to dive in the ocean and flash his abs.'
