Flashing the “Pushpa hand gesture’’ to the media in Amabala, Vij said that whatever he says comes from his conscience and his inner voice cannot be suppressed. “I cannot be made to bow down,’’ he said, a la a Pushpa dialogue. Vij had earlier donned the role of ‘Gabbar’ and many a time of a singer. After Vij’s outburst, his cabinet colleagues, BJP leaders and officials have preferred silence.
