BJP leaders praised Jinnah, secretly visited Pak: UT Khader on Ramya row

August 24, 2016

Mangaluru, Aug 24: Delivering a tight slap on the face of those who tried to portray actor-turned-politician Ramya as an “antinational”, Congress leader U T Khader today said that it was BJP veteran L K Advani, who vociferously praised Mohammed Ali Jinnah, the founder of Pakistan.

ramya Ramya has been facing the ire of Sangh Parivar after she positively spoke about her recent trip to Pakistan for the SAARC Youth Summit. A pro-BJP advocate has lodged a sedition complaint in local court in Kodagu against Ramya for saying Pakistan is not hell. Besides, the BJP activists on social media have been constantly abusing her for refusing to apologize for her personal views.

Extending moral support to his party colleague and former Mandya MP, Mr Khader said that those who abuse Ramya and call her an anti-national just for expressing her opinion should clarify their stance on the one who vociferously praised Jinnah.

“Have you forgotten Mr Advani's statements on Jinnah after the former returned from Karachi trip? You never called him anti-national. Ramya never did such a mistake. She just expressed her opinion on her official Pakistan visit,” Mr Khader said.

Recalling Prime Minister Narendra Modi's surprise Pakistan visit, Mr Khader said, “Modi had gone to Pakistan without prior discussion and he attended a private function too. Uttar Pradesh minister Azam Khan made allegation that Modi met underworld don Dawood Ibrahim in Lahore.”

Stating that all Indians are patriots, Mr Khader said that one particular party is behaving as if patriotism is its own property. “They just want to spread hatred and divide people for political gains. These are all dirty games. People should teach them a lesson,” he said.

BJP's cheap politics!!! They don't have any issue to raise against Mr. Siddaramaiyya government and to cover up Mr Yeddy verses Eeshwarsppa fighting,

Dear All, you wont become anti national if you speak in favor of Pakistan, nor if you speak against India in BJP ruled nation. It is only when you speak or share your views anything against our central government views, then you are labelled here as Anti National. That is what the Bjp or RSS wants Indians to be, literally these are SICK

IGNORE KARO !!!

Our Little dumb girl Geeta crossed Pakistan border and spend a good life for about 20 years in Eddi's ashram as he look after her as his own daughter. Still she was not converted to Islam ; finally Eddy bought her to India , when the government of BJP offered him 1 crores of rupees he politely refused the money. What a great man he is . . He is a Pakistani. We salute him. likewise there are crores of people in Pakistan are good and some people are their very bad (killing innocents in road, mosque, and schools).
So what Ramya said here???/ She said the people are good and Pakistan is not hell.
If Pakistan is a hell ,,, then how those people who were visited recently there not burned to death???? including Sushmaji, Modi and Rajnath????
Whatever Modiji did was good. He has followed Vajpayeeji.
In Pakistan there are terrorist groups which cannot be controlled by the Pak government; every time they kill hundreds of innocents .

No the most poisonous creatures of India like VHP , BJP etc. Sangha Pariwar's has no work to do simply they behind now Ramya.

BJP's achievement......
Modi's visit cunningly to Pakistan without invitiation....did anyone lodge sedition charge against him....this is called double speaking...
these ABVP and BJP kind of terrorist groups do not have any job to do...just want to create uneasiness and unpleasant condition around...
