Most Hopeless, Dumb and Irresponsible Home Minister in the History of Indian Govts.
This is diverting tactics from key issues, forget this ISIS this is not at all encouraged by Indian Muslims. This is BJP agenda to hide their Failure.
Government is quick on diverting minds of people....I don't think there are any ISIS in India.....to escape from the responsibility of safe guarding Dalits and minorities....this is the game gimmick....what a rubbish...
How can we believe these LIARs who have no shame in Fooling public again & again. The HM and Times now made an innocent decent guy as terrorist, just by quoting from a Bangladesh news paper (They apologized later) ... These LIARS have PHD in spreading LIES and making innocent a Terrorist. Recognise and be alert when you get news from these cheddis... Use your intellect and verify before you blame the innocent which may later find regretting for the action YOU take.
9 missing persons out of 20 crores.....PEA NUTS.... All the fingers of a hand are not equal.... After 5 years, the govt will come back and say, these were wrong reports by Police, as happened in the case of Akshamdam and Hyderabad attacks...
After 10 years everybody will be proved innocent..
