When poor people are killing daily they all are sleeping.
But when RSS goons are killed by gang war, they supporting that Goons. Because BJP- itself is a RSS Goons-Terrorists Party.
It is not bjp mps meeting it is the only rss announced meeting. By the support of media their rest of all ongoing meeting never came out or anounced. Why there is so much importat for rss group why not important given to INDIAN citizens life . Rss people daily taking innocent INDAIN citizens life all arround INDIA for NO reason.
Why our PM isdoing double standard. Where ever he go and speak he omit poison with castism. Attacking on minority Dalits. No the bjp criminal leaders forget democracy recently they were trying to de stabilize.. no bjp state government all over INDIA. Means they are playing against INDIAN citizens mandate. Insulting our great freedom fighter even they comparing MAHATMA GANDHI with their low grade rss people. Who never participated for INDIA's independence strugle. Our pm never respect human life even he did
not taken care of his wife then what he will take care of us . One who supporting this group must think and compare common man's life and security after INDEPENDENCE with present bjp govt's rule. Always fighting communal clash financial crise ; scarcity of food ; increase in common food items rate.
What will happen till next election - Only GOD have to save us from this dirty organization.
Jai Hind !
