Maha CM Eknath Shinde hits out at the Congress for instilling fear among Muslims
In the midst of his speech at
the Shiv Sena’s first
meeting of minorities in the state at the Shanmukhananda Hall in Mumbai, Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Sunday hit out at the Congress for instilling fear among Muslims on various issues and trying to generate a rift amidst them and the Hindus.
The CM pointed out that those Muslims who respect this state and country are ours. However, it was the Congress that always ensured a rift amidst the two communities (Hindus and Muslims).
He further alleged that keeping both the communities away from each other, generating a rift and indulging in votebank politics are something the Congress has been doing for years.
In the midst of communal tensions in Mumbai and Thane, Shiv Sena workers have not only protected temples but also mosques.
If we were against the minority community, we would not have made Abdul Sattar (agriculture) minister. We respect all communities Shinde concluded.
