- Stop debate over PM, start planning for LS polls, else debacle awaits you: Dr Togadia’s prescription to faction-ridden BJP
By Dheeraj Fartode
Reacting sharply on ongoing factional feud within Bharatiya Janata Party and debate over its proposed Prime Ministerial candidate, International Working President of Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) Dr Pravin Togadia on Monday advised the BJP first to get its act right, ensure victory over adequate number of seats, stop ongoing feud and also give more priority to organisation than individual, else it will lead to only debacle in 2014 Lok Sabha polls, he cautioned .
Dr Togadia, once known as mascot of Hindutva politics, minced no words while projecting a waterloo for BJP, if the ongoing “mad rush to declare PM candidate is not stopped.” Instead the party must carefully plan its strategy to win maximum number of Lok Sabha seats instead of making inflated claims about individual leader, he stated without naming any leader. The VHP leader and Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi, once close friends are not even on talking terms these days and Dr Togadia avoided naming Modi, but dropped enough hints disapproving the ongoing campaign to project him as future PM candidate of BJP.

Talking to The Hitavada at Nagpur, Dr Togadia, also advised all other parties including Congress not to join the band-wagon to name PM candidate and instead should focus on strategy to win maximum seats in coming general elections.
The VHP leader also fired salvo at Union Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde for his much-criticised ‘Hindu Terror’ comment and asserted that no Hindu is involved in such activity. This is pure vote-bank politics, appeasement policy and Congress leaders are not realising great damage caused to Hindu society due to such reckless and baseless statements, he stated while slamming Congress leadership for “maligning image of India and its Hindu population globally.” This has helped Pakistan and jehadi terror groups to counter Indian claims about their involvement in terror activities inside India, he pointed out. He also charged the UPA with “going soft on terror, sleeper modules and their supporters ignoring clinching evidence collected by intelligence agencies.”
‘Protect Hindus in B’desh, Pak’
The VHP leader demanded strong action to “implement Nehru-Liaquat accord” to protect minority Hindu community in Bangladesh and Pakistan. Fanatical forces have resorted to “ethnical cleansing” and forced abduction and conversion of Hindu’s in both the countries, forcing them to flee to India and seek shelter here, Dr Togadia claimed. In Bangaldesh, Hindus were 28 per cent at the time of partition and the number has gone down to 8 per cent while in Pakistan, only two per cent Hindus are left, he said.

“I have already written a letter to President of India reminding him that it is legal duty of GoI to protect our Hindu brethren in Bangladesh and Pakistan. The President has acknowledged and forwarded the letter for appropriate action,” Dr Togadia claimed. The VHP is planning to approach every member of parliament to force Indian government to pressurise Bangladesh and Pakistan to implement Liaquat–Nehru accord and protect Hindu’s, their right of property and freedom of religion.
VHP to help drought affected people
International working president of Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) Dr Pravin Togadia has appealed for donation from citizens to undertake relief work for drought affected people of Maharasthra. “VHP have arranged employment for 5,000 drought affected people in Mumbai. This people will work in various industries which are committed to cause of VHP and they live in temples and dharmshala. Everything has been arranged by VHP for them,” Dr Togadia informed ‘The Hitavada’ during his one day tour of Nagpur. He further added that society should come in front to help such needy persons. Industrialist, who wants to provide help and employment for such people, can inform on phone no 020-66803300.
