NEW DELHI: An MPA of India’s ruling BJP faced flak on the social media for allowing a party worker to wash his feet and subsequently drink that water.
Nishikant Dubey was criticised on social media after a video of a local party worker washing the MP’s feet and drinking the same water went viral on social media.
Dubey later defended himself by saying that what the worker did was a ‘customary practice in Jharkhand’ and he did it out of sheer happiness.

While some commented that the BJP leaders need to discourage such acts by followers, others called the whole episode ‘disgraceful’.
