NEW DELHI: There seems to be no end to the ‘goli maaro’ chant from BJP leaders even after the shoot out at Jamia, which left one student injured.
The latest to echo Anurag Thakur’s provocation is BJP MLA Sangeet Som.
While speaking to media in Meerut on January 30, Som spoke on women sitting on protests in Shaheen Bagh against Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and Sharjeel Imam.
He said, “The women sitting on protests have no work and a probe is needed to find out the source of funding of these protests.”
“As far as people like Sharjeel Imam who talk of breaking India are concerned, such people should be shot dead publicly,” Sangeet Som added.
The controversial Bharatiya Janata Party MLA has track record when it comes to instigated communal violence and hate speeches against Muslims.
Sangeet Som shot to limelight for his fiery speeches during the 2013 Muzaffarnagar riots and was one of those named for inciting violence.
In 2015, Som said that Taj Mahal, Akbar, Babar are blots to the Indian Culture.
A staunch ‘gau rakshak’ Som is also reported to be one of the directors in Al Dua Food Processing Pvt Ltd, India’s leading HALAL meat (including beef).
