Replying to this, self-styled fact-checker wrote, “Says BJP MP who converted to Islam just to marry his co-star because she could not have tied the knot as per the Hindu Marriage Act because Dharmendra was already married back then.”
Zubair did not realise that he hit a self-goal with this statement because it is his own community that indulges in polygamy and has necessitated this law to be passed.
Zubair’s response elicited hilarious reactions from netizens who ridiculed him for not realising what he just did there. Here are some reactions.
That's why UCC is the need of the hour !!!
LKFC for a reason 🤡 https://t.co/9tFGoAWrNa

Once again, netizens schooled a fact-checker for his so-called “facts”.
