MIM’s rise will make Muslims politically unsafe: Dr Pravin Togadia

Expressing deep concern over rise of Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM) and its adverse impact on social and political fabric of India, International Working President of Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) Dr Pravin Togadia on Thursday said that emergence of MIM would shrink the political space and will make Muslims politically unsafe. 

Traditionally, Muslims votes en bloc for Congress or NCP, but these votes have now shifted to parties like MIM which actually helped the BJP in winning elections, Togadia claimed during an exclusive interview to The Hitavada. However, the fire-brand VHP leader claimed that corresponding decrease in representation of Muslims in Congress and NCP would actually affect political empowerment of Muslims in future. Any attempt by outfits like MIM to woo Scheduled Castes will not succeed, he predicted citing historic decision of Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar who refused to embrace Islam. 
Dr Pravin Togadia, International
Working President of VHP

On the issue of conversion row, the VHP leader said that Hindus are victim of religious conversion throughout the world and India has to pay a heavy price due to massive conversion of Hindu society in the past. “Situation of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Kashmir valley is direct result of conversion of Hindus. It is time for Hindus to unite and not to fall prey to conversion,” the VHP leader appealed. 

Reacting strongly to ongoing debate over conversion, Dr Togadia reminded them to object it to forcible conversion started way back in 712 AD by Muhammad Bin Qasim and debunked the criticism as politically motivated and historically incorrect. 

Citing Supreme Court’s 1977 ruling in Rev Stanislaus vs Madhya Pradesh, Dr Togadia said that right to profess, practice and propagate religion is a fundamental right. But, right to profess does not mean right to convert hence, conversion is an unconstitutional activity.

Home coming is not conversion
On the issue of ‘Ghar Wapsi’ (home coming), Dr Togadia said that VHP and RSS are only doing home coming of converted Hindus and does not support any conversion. First home coming was done by Jagadguru Ramanandacharya before 700 years and 25,000 Muslims were reconverted to Hindu at Ayodhya when there was no RSS and VHP. Another mass home coming of 3 lakh Hindus was done by Swami Shraddhanand in 1920 for that he was killed. Hindus were waiting for peaceful democratic way of conversion and nobody should object to home coming, he said.

IGP Prasanna : The man who stopped Obama’s convoy

By
IGP Mallikarjuna Prasanna By Dheeraj Fartode  Published on Feb/17/2019 NOT many are aware of an episode during the then US President Barack Obama’s visit to India in 2010. The world’s most powerful man was made to wait for 11 minutes in his car while an Indian cop took on American officials for their unwarranted interference in the US President’s security. KM Mallikarjuna Prasanna, Special Inspector General of Police of Nagpur Range, still continues to work with the same pride, wearing his patriotism on the sleeve. “Had they (Americans) deployed their personnel for area security, then the message would have been Indians are unable to protect VIPs in their nation,” recounted Prasanna on the episode that is one of the highlights of his distinguished career of a skillful investigator. The story of the IPS officer of 2000 batch is worth a film. In fact, a movie (Nagarjun-starrer ‘Officer’) has already been made by Ram Gopal Verma last year. His real life script als...
