‘Don’t create a Hindu Pakistan’
Trinamul MP urges PM to stop ‘engines of coercion’ Mr Bose called upon PM Modi to unambiguously condemn and take stronger action against those who are spreading the poison of hatred and killing humans in the name of religion
Ruing the fact that the nation is witnessing an upsurge in incidents of hatred and violence in the form of communalism, Trinamul Congress MP Sugata Bose urged upon Prime Minister Narendra Modi that if he actually wants all evils to quit India by 2022, then he should “stop the engines of coercion in their tracks.”
Meanwhile, participating in the discussion in Rajya Sabha, CPI(M) MP Sitaram Yechury warned
against creation “Hindu Pakistan”.
Mr Yechury referred to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's comments in the recent episode of his monthly radio programme
of Mann ki Baat in which he had said that all out efforts should be made to end the problems of the country in five years from now, just like the period between 1942 and 1947 was a decisive one.
“Now, Sir, what is that objective? In 1947, we became Independent. We are all proud... In those five years, we also saw the partition of India. We saw the communal polarisation that led to this unfortunate partition, aided by the British. So, if you are alluding to those five years, there is an ominous sign. It is a very dark cloud,” Yechury said.
However, Leader of the House in Rajya Sabha, Arun Jaitley, said it was the day to commit to make the country a strong, just and economically-progressive country.
Meanwhile, Trinamul MP Sugata Bose called upon Mr Modi, who was seated in the House throughout the two-and-ahalf hour long discussion, to unambiguously condemn and take stronger action against those who are spreading the poison of hatred and killing human beings in the name of religion.
