Old video of Hardik Patel appealing not to vote for BJP goes viral

A video of Patidar leader Hardik Patel, who had quit the Congress and joined the BJP just before the first phase of polling for 89 seats in the Gujarat assembly elections, has gone viral. In which he is appealing not to vote for BJP.

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Naresh Balyan posted the video and wrote in his tweet that “there is a big ruckus in the BJP before the Gujarat elections. Hardik Patel swore by his “Kul Devta” that he should not vote for BJP . They have tortured our people. Has committed murders.
