Angry Congress name Sulabh Shauchalya after Rishi Kapoor
The ongoing war between the Congress supporters and Rishi Kapoor has taken a different turn as the party workers in Allahabad have named a Sulabh Shauchalaya (public toilet) after the actor.
The ongoing war between the Congress supporters and Rishi Kapoor has taken a different turn as the party workers in Allahabad have named a Sulabh Shauchalaya (public toilet) after the actor.
Reports reveal that dozens of Congress workers gathered in Shivaji Park area of Allahabad and placed a bearing Rishi Kapoor’s name outside a Sulabh Shauchalya. The supporters protested that naming public assets after the Gandhi family is justified as India prospered after achieving freedom because of their contributions. The protest even led to the actor's residence in suburban Bandra in Mumbai as the Congress workers pelted stones and shouted slogans against Rishi Kapoor.
In a series of tweets, Rishi Kapoor had pointed out that the names of the prominent places should be changed after those who worked for the welfare of the country but came under the ire of the Congress leaders. However, the veteran actor found support from Actor Anupam Kher and others.
Change Gandhi family assets named by Congress.Bandra/Worli Sea Link to Lata Mangeshkar or JRD Tata link road. Baap ka maal samjh rakha tha ?

If roads in Delhi can be changed why not Congress assets/property ke naam? Was in Chandigarh wahan bhi Rajeev Gandhi assets? Socho? Why?

We must name important assets of the country who have contributed to society. Har cheez Gandhi ke naam? I don't agree. Sochna log!

Film City should be named Dilip Kumar,Dev Anand,Ashok Kumar ya Amitabh Bachchan ke naam? Rajeev Gandhi udyog Kya hota hai? Socho doston!

Imagine Mohamad Rafi Mukesh Manna Dey Kishore Kumar venues on their name like in our country. Just a suggestion

Why Indira G airport International ? Why not Mahatma Gandhi or Bhagat Singh Ambedkar or on my name Rishi Kapoor. As superficial! What say?

Raj Kapoor has made India proud over the years all over even after his death. Certainly more than What has been perceived by politics.
