Just yesterday, union minister Anurag Thakur urged a crowd at an election rally in Delhi to say "goli maaro" - or shoot down traitors - in a widely-shared video that is being examined by the Election Commission.
He was campaigning for the BJP candidate in Rithala in North West Delhi for the February 8 Delhi election, can be seen prompting "desh ke gaddaron ko...", to which the crowd responds "...goli maaro sa***n ko"; the entire chant translates to "shoot down the traitors who betray the country".
Thakur never actually says the controversial part of the slogan, but clearly spawns on the crowd and claps his hands as he gets the response he wants.
Several BJP leaders were present at the time. The BJP candidate from Rithala, Manish Chaudhary, was also on stage when the slogan was being chanted. Later, Home Minister Amit Shah arrived and addressed the same rally.
