BJP candidate from Puri Lok Sabha seat, Sambit Patra apologised for his Mahaprabhu is devotee of PM Modi remarks following backlash and termed it an unintentional mistake. He also said need to seek forgiveness from Mahaprabhu Jagannath for this slip of the tongue and he has decided to do a 'upvaas'. Sambit Patra said, "Today, a statement made by me had created a controversy. After PM Narendra Modi's roadshow in Puri, I gave byte to many media channels and everywhere I said the same thing, that PM Narendra Modi is an ardent devotee of Mahaprabhu Jagannath... In the end, when another channel took my byte, it was extremely hot, crowded and noisy. Unknowingly, while giving the byte, I said the opposite, that Mahaprabhu is a devotee of PM Narendra Modi. This can never be true, and a person in his senses can never say such things that god is a devotee of a human. I have made this mistake unintentionally. I know some people must have been hurt but even god forgives mistakes made unintentionally... I need to seek forgiveness from Mahaprabhu Jagannath for this slip of the tongue and I have decided to do a 'upvaas'."
