TIL Desk/National/Bengaluru-BJP national President Amit Shah said the spirit of nationalism and patriotism united the country and regretted that it had “become a fashion” to question one’s nationalism in the guise of freedom of expression.
Remembering sacrifices made by freedom fighters and martyrs for India’s independence, Shah said: “The country can remain united only if there is spirit of nationalism and patriotism. If there was no nationalism or patriotism, there would have been no independence, if there was no independence, there would have been no Constitution.”
Speaking at an event to mark the 70th year of Independence here, about 350 km from Bengaluru, Shah said it had become a fashion to question one’s nationalism in the guise of freedom of expression, and that a few people were campaigning even on social media and asking if nationalism was necessary or not. “It has become a fashion nowadays for a few people in a few places to question nationalism. This is being done in different places and theories are being planted.
