TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday accused the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh-Bharatiya Janata Party combine of trying to break the composite culture of Jammu and Kashmir.
‘The feeling of love, brotherhood and composite culture exists among you all. I feel sad that the RSS and BJP are trying to break this culture,’ Gandhi said in his address to Congress office-bearers and workers at a party function in Jammu on the second day of his two-day visit to Jammu.’
They (RSS, BJP) attack love and brotherhood. You got weakened and as result, they took away your statehood,’ he added. The RSS is the ideological fount of the BJP-led government at the Centre.
The Congress leader exhorted the gathering to chant ‘Jai Mata Di’, a day after he paid obeisance at the Mata Vaishno Devi shrine in Katra. ‘I went to Mata Vaishno Devi shrine yesterday. There are three symbols of mata (pindis) there – Mata Durga, Mata Lakshmi and Mata Saraswati,’ Gandhi said.
