Jaipur: Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s advice to refrain from making controversial statements seems to be having no impact.

After Sakshi Maharaj, the firebrand BJP leader Sadhvi Prachi called upon Hindus to produce four children and give one to the Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP).

“One child cannot protect the country. We need at least four children. We used to say hum do hamare do (We are two, ours two) but we need four children in a family,” said Sadhvi Prachi in Virat Hindu Conclave organised by the VHP at Bhilwara in Rajasthan on Monday.

Sadhvi Prachi who fought the 2012 UP Assembly elections on BJP ticket said, “A lion doesn’t have just one child? We also need four children in each family. One will fight the enemies on the border, give one to saints, and give another to VHP for social work.”

On Tuesday, addressing a gathering in Meerut, BJP MP Shakshi Maharaj has said the concept of four wives and 40 children will not work in India and the time has come when a Hindu woman must produce at least four kids to protect Hindu religion.
