Bhopal: Senior Congress leader Digvijaya Singh on Monday said that all Hindu terrorists caught in the past have had been associated somehow with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS).
“All Hindu terrorists who have ever been caught have association with RSS in some way or the other. Nathuram Godse, who assassinated Mahatma Gandhi, was also part of RSS.
“So, this ideology is spreading hatred, hatred breeds violence, and from violence is bred terrorism,” he told a media channel.
Asked to comment, Congress’s spokesman Manish Tewari said he was not aware of Digvijaya Singh’s remarks.
On the other hand, analysts feeling that after losing political relevance, came this absurd statement which was solely aimed at catching media attention. “This is a desperate act by Digvijai Singh as he is unable to digest the fact that his one time “Disciple” Rahul Gandhi has dumped him,” claimed a Congress insider.
