Merely days after the BJP mounted a full assault on Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar for his visit to a tantrik (occult practitioner), renowned astrologer Bejan Daruwala has claimed that he read Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s palm.
In an embarrassment for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Bejan said that he had met the PM once, during which he had predicted that the nation’s progress lies in the hands of Modi. He said that the PM did not have lines on his hand, but mounts which he claimed were an indication of his strength. He also said that the BJP would cause problems for Modi.
The time and date of the PM’s astrologic ‘consultation’ is not known, however, in an undated picture doing the rounds , the PM is seen showing his palms to Daruwalla.
The BJP had recently released a video, which showed Nitish embracing a tantric. Modi had said that video revealed Nitish’s lack of confidence, even as the polls in the state were underway.
