Majority of Muslims in India are descendants of Hindus, says BJP MP

New Delhi, Jul 31: Majority of Muslims in India are descendants of Hindus, a BJP member claimed in the Lok Sabha today while asking both the communities to respect each other's sentiment.

Participating in a debate on lynchings, Hukumdev Narayan Yadav slammed the opposition for targeting the central government over incidents of lynchings, saying Prime Minister Narendra Modi has repeatedly come out strongly against such acts.

He raised the issue of killing of RSS workers in Kerala, which is ruled by the Left Front government. Yadav asserted that the responsibility of containing mob violence is that of the state governments. He said "certain demons" have put on "holy garb" to defame the government, likening it to an episode in the Ramayana.

"Some people are indulging in terror (atankvadi) activities to defame the government," the BJP member said and slammed the Congress for questioning the intention of the Modi government.

Yadav, the MP from Madhubani in Bihar, said a fight between two ideologies has been going on for several decades and asserted those who follow the path of "economic development and nationalism" will come out victorious.

During his speech, he extensively quoted Deen Dayal Upadhyaya and said the BJP ideologue had stated that "Muslims in India are descendants of Hindus."

He said every Muslim must respect Hindu sentiment and at the same time, Hindus must respect the Muslims.

The MP was also severely critical of the policies of Congress and said "I will prefer to die than bowing before the Congress...Some politicians sit with the Congress and have biryani and then indulge in artificial fight outside."

Yadav said he will prefer to die than abadonning the ideology he is fighting for.

Talking about nationalism, Yadav said freedom fighters Maulana Abul Kalam Azad and Khan Abdul Gaffar Khan had sung the poem 'Vande Mataram' but there is an environment now in which singing it is considered a crime.

He also cited a recent case in which a political leader had sought support from the Naxals. "There cannot be bigger lynching than this," the BJP member said.

Yadav also alleged that Deen Dayal Upadhyaya and Ram Manohar Lohia were killed in late 1960s as both were planning to join hands.

The BJP MP drew the attention of the House towards the 1984 anti-Sikh riots and raised the issue of killing of RSS workers in Kerala.

Islam is the religion since the creation of human beings on earth. Later people misleaded and started to woship idols and others.

But allah s.w.t. sent  more than 1 lac messangers to guide and warn the people when they mislead.. 

Our prophet S.A.W. is the last messamger to th entire mankind.

Study and analyse definitely you will find the truth and true religion.. 

worship allah the creator, May allah give you hidayah.

Not only majority of Muslims, it could be all Muslims. Remember they were not Hindus. They were Indians.

We respect everyone including all Hindus. Hinduism can be called as a cultural group rather than religion.

Hinduism is identity of Hindus and  now changed in the name of religion. This is their faith.

 

Your true analyzer.

Remember the relgion is set of commands how to lead the life to be successful in now  and after the death.

Therefore it should be by the real God. Because it should not clash and contradict the SCIENCE.

 

If there is any such religion that can be compared to the SCIENCE, then that is the true religion.

It has come from the real GOD, so there can not be more than 1religion.

Therefore only 1 is the true religion and others are man made culture.

Yes but Vedas says Worship one God and there is no image of God (Na tasya pratima Asti) Our grandfathers understood this and started to worship one God ALLAH. instead of worshiping the created things ...

 

We request U to worship the CREATOR not his CREATION..,

 

If Your intention is honest ... ALLAH will Guide you.

He does not what he talks. Unwarranted things.

Admit fairly instead of dragging and talking nonsense.

Mob Lynching was there, and now it exceeded the height because of BJP in power in UP and in centre.

They dont have fear of the law where they are given safe heavens.

 

What is the fuss if all Indians were Hindus. It could be true. It has irrelecance with the subject. 

Is it a license to commit  whatever they like to do.

 

God give them wisdom and save from the clutches of these illiterates.

New Delhi, Feb 4: Leader of Congress in Lok Sabha, Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury, on Tuesday attacked the BJP over Anantkumar Hegde's controversial remark on Mahatma Gandhi and termed the party as "Ravan ke aulad" (children of Ravana). "Aaj ye Mahatma Gandhi ko gaali dete hain. Ye Ravan ke aulad hain. Ram ke pujari ka ye apmaan kar rahe hain (Today, they abuse Mahatma Gandhi. They are children of Ravan. They are insulting Lord Ram's devotee)," Chowdhury said.

Later, BJP lawmakers object to Chowdhury's statement. Hegde, who is a Lok Sabha MP from Uttara Kannada, had on Saturday said that the freedom struggle led by Mahatma Gandhi was a "drama".

"None of these so-called leaders were beaten up by the cops even once. Their independence movement was one big drama. It was staged by these leaders with the approval of the British. It was not a genuine fight. It was an adjustment freedom struggle," Hegde had said while addressing a public event in Bengaluru. While several Congress leaders, including Karti Chidambaram and BK Hariprasad, have condemned Hegde's remark, BJP leaders too have distanced themselves from it.

Top leadership in BJP is unhappy with Anantkumar Hegde over his controversial remark on Mahatma Gandhi, party sources had said on Monday, adding that he has been asked to issue an unconditional apology.
