Hindu Mahasabha may create countries on caste basis: Habib

ALIGARH: Eminent historian and Professor Emeritus at the Aligarh Muslim University (AMU), Prof Irfan Habib on Wednesday said if the Hindu Mahasabha gets a free hand, it may create separate countries for every caste. “The conspiracy of dividing the nation on communal lines was first taken up by leaders of Hindu Mahasabha. The two-nation theory was first mooted by them,” he said while addressing a seminar on ‘Present Scenario in India’ organised by AMU Employees’ Union and AMU Democratic Forum.
