India can never be a Hindu rashtra: Laloo
Dwarka (Gujarat)
Dec. 8.
Asserting that India can never be a `Hindu rashtra', the Rashtriya Janata Dal chief, Laloo Prasad Yadav, today said the country would continue to remain secular despite the threat posed by communal forces.
``India can never be a Hindu rashtra as it is also the land of Sikhs, Muslims and Christians,'' he said and asked the voters not to be swayed by the statements of BJP leaders. ``Since when have Modi, Togadia and Singhal become the symbol of Hinduism,'' Mr. Yadav asked.
Addressing an election rally in support of the Congress here, he said ``the party is preaching Hinduism on the one hand and on the other, it is discriminating against Dalits in Rajasthan and other States.''
He accused the Narendra Modi Government of not taking appropriate measures to control the riots which rocked Gujarat after the Godhra carnage.
