RSS statement ‘No Hindutva without Muslims’ is bogus: PV Mohan
Mangaluru: KPCC general secretary PV Mohan has stated that RSS Chief’s remark that there is no Hindutva without Muslims is just a bogus statement.
Addressing a press meet at D.K district Congress Bhavan on Saturday, he said, "RSS was eyeing on Muslim votes and has issued such a statement to garner more votes for Prime Minister Narendra Modi. There can be peace and harmony in the nation only if the RSS is banned.
"The BJP is a sinking ship. Anyhow this has to be brought ashore. Therefore the RSS is struggling. The RSS, which does not talk about issues like Cauvery and Mahadayi, is helping BJP through raking up communal sentiments," Mohan alleged.
“The Narendra Modi-led central government is more dangerous than the erstwhile British rule. It has implemented GST, note ban which were not discussed before polls. At the same time, it has failed to fulfill its poll promises on black money and to create employment,” he alleged.
“The Congress will be holding a Lok Sampark Abhiyan across the nation from October 2 to November 19. A 10-member team will be formed in 56 booths in the district. This team would serve as a service center,” he added.
The party's leaders Abdul Saleem, Neeraj Paul, Honnaya, Sumit, Nazir Bajal and others were present.
