”Patil’s statement is an Insult to Hindu, Hindutva and Hindustan”

Bharatiya Janata Party’s Mumbai unit took strong exception to the statement given by the senior Congress leader Shivraj Patil.

Lately, Congress leader Shivraj Patil has ignited a controversy by saying that Lord Krishna also taught Jihad to Arjun. Now when the statement is gathering heavy criticism, Patil seems reluctant to admit his fault saying I did not say so, I just had asked!

On his changed stand now the BJP says Patil only tried to defend his statement instead of issuing an apology for what he said.

Former Union Home Minister and Congress leader Shivraj Patil’s statement is an insult to Hindu, Hindutva, and Hindustan, says Mumbai BJP. Mumbai party vice-president holds that Patil’s statement that Shri Krishna talks to Arjuna about jihad in the Bhagavad Gita shows the crooked culture of Congress. This statement is inspired by the anti-Hindu views of Congress which have been spoken by their leaders from time to time, says PawanTripathi.

Condemning what Patil has said, Pawan Tripathi states the claim of saying that the Ram Setu built by the army of Lord Shri Ram was fictional and was made by the Congress itself. Congress itself coined the theory of Hindu terrorism and saffron terrorism. Congress leader and former minister Salman Khurshid even compared Hindutva with terrorist organizations Boko Haram and Islamic State. Patil has once again displayed the anti-Hindu mentality and tradition of the Congress by making this statement openly.

Tripathi maintains that on one hand, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is working on the unity and development of the country by talking of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas and Sabka Vishwas’, while on the other hand, Congress leaders like Patil are showing their sanskars by making frivolous statements. Patil’s statement is unfortunate and unforgivable. This is an insult to Hindus. Patil should apologize to the entire Hindu society. The country will not tolerate the insult of Hindu, Hindutva and Hindustan.
