Speaking at a function to felicitate UP Minister Suresh Rana here yesterday, Saini said, “I had promised that I will break the hands and legs of those who hesitate in saying ‘Vande Matram’, those who feel pain in saying ‘Bharat mata ki jai’ and also those who do not consider cow as their mother and kill them.”
