BJP MLA Usha Thakur said Friday that Muslims should sacrifice their sons and not goats if the ritual of qurbani was so important.

“In the legend of Ibrahim, a goat takes the place of his son. Either you sacrifice your sons. If you can’t do that, don’t sacrifice animals at all,” the MLA said in Indore.

“When I say qurbani of sons, I don’t mean they should be slaughtered like goats. They can sacrifice their lives for the country,” the Indore MLA told The Indian Express.
