Amid raging controversy over statements by BJP leader Giriraj Singh and VHP leader Pravin Togadia, Narendra Modi has said that he disapproves of these statements by, what he said, those claiming to be BJP's well-wishers as they are deviating the
campaign.

He appealed to them to refrain from doing so in a series of tweets on the blogging site Twitter.

Giriraj Singh had said that those opposing Modi should be sent to Pakistan while Togadia had asked his supporters to forcibly vacate a house purchased by a Muslim in a Hindu majority area of Bhavnagar in Gujarat.
