Ex-MP Rashid Alvi expresses concern over mob violence

New Delhi: Former Congress MP Rashid Alvi said that since BJP came to power, there is no stopping of incidents violating humanity and sabotaging the democracy. On one side innocents are being targeted by the mobs, on the other side some controversial leaders are making provocative statements and spreading hatred in the country. He lamented that incidents of killings of innocents are not coming to an end.

Rashid Alvi further said that in the country like India which is famous around the world for patience and tolerance, incidences of mob lynching have shaken the minds of peace-loving people. He told this while speaking to Urdu media at his official residence.

He said it is unfortunate that due to government’s backing the administration has not arrested any accused or convicts so far. But some Sangh leaders encourage such criminals and name them as ‘Gau Rakshaks’.
