Minister of State for Minority Affairs Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi on Saturday said that the Congress Party is sprinkling salt on the wounds of people by paying visit to the Bishada village.

"A few days ago, people of Bishada village told me that they are living together peacefully, but this political tourism is creating problems among the people," Naqvi told ANI.

Earlier, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and some local Congress leaders were stopped from entering Bishada to meet the family of Mohammad Akhlaq, after villagers expressed their anger over the steady stream of visitors.
