Azam Khan had said the funds for the grand celebrations had come from the Taliban, LeT and Dawood Ibrahim.
Responding to a question, Baliyan said a man who has openly admitted of taking money from ‘terrorists’ is the biggest terrorist himself.
Baliyan is a BJP leader and his name had also figured in the Muzaffarnagar violence of 2013.
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) spokesman Vijay Bahadur Pathak defended Sanjeev Baliyan.
“… In this case, he (Azam Khan) has spelt out his terror links so what’s wrong in what Baliyan said,” Pathak said.
