BJP using power to create Hindu-Muslim rift in India: Rahul Gandhi
New Delhi: Indian Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has said that the BJP is exploiting its power to create a rift between Hindus and Muslims for their own political gains.
According to Kashmir Media Service, in a post on X, Rahul Gandhi said that the biased and hasty attitude of the BJP led UP government on the recent Shahi Masjid issue in Sambhal is extremely unfortunate.
Rahul Gandhi who is also leader of opposition in the lower house of the Indian parliament said that BJP’s use of power to create a rift and discrimination between Hindu-Muslim communities is neither in the interest of the state nor the country. He urged the Supreme Court of India to intervene in the matter as soon as possible and do justice.
He expressed condolences to those who have lost their loved ones in the police firing and said that the administration, without listening to all the parties, insensitively took action that vitiated the atmosphere for which the BJP government is directly responsible.
The former Congress chief also appealed for peace and mutual harmony.
It is pertinent to mention that three Muslims were killed and several injured on Sunday as protesters opposing a court-ordered survey of a Mughal-era mosque in Sambhal, UP. A fourth injured person died on Monday.
