Earlier in an Instagram video, Dahiya slammed trolls, saying that those who don't have anything better to do are creating controversies.While talking about the protest, he went on to say that he was awake for two days and took care of various things.What is the burger row?It all started with a tweet alleging that Dahiya was seen eating at a fast-food outlet during the protest. “Do you know what Vijeta Dahiya was doing when the CJP protesters were being lathi-charged by the police for creating chaos? He was eating a ‘Burger’. Just look at the level of shamelessness. Every CJP leader kept misleading the protesters while staying away from the streets themselves. And Vijeta Dahiya turned out to be the biggest fraud among them all.”In response, Dahiya shared a video on Instagram. “Why did I eat a burger? This is a big issue today. So why does anyone eat a burger? He is hungry. He wants to eat a burger. That's it. So I was also very hungry. And when you eat something good, your mind feels good,” Vijeta Dahiya lashed out at trolls.He further asked, “Those who are talking nonsense, they are sitting at home and talking nonsense. Okay, so let me tell you one thing. A person who is just eating and drinking, he has no interest in social issues. He has no interest in any politics. You don't have a problem with him eating a burger. But a person eating a burger, even if he is a protester, is talking about the issues of the country, you have a problem eating his burger.”What did CJP say on Vijeta Dahiya’s removal?The controversy over the “burger” didn’t die down; instead, it prompted CJP to take action.Also Read: ‘Mera chhota sa yogdaan’: Auto driver refused fare from CJP protesters in Delhi.
