narendra Modi govt compliments to hindu terrorist......
I request muslim organisations to provide same arm camps to all of their members...
It is the duty of Governor to maintain Law and order in co-ordination with state govt. instead it supports this kind of illegal activities.
If people are allowed to take Arms what will be the future of Inida..
It is shame to the democratic country like India and going back to the old age where there was no Law and order.
It is the Duty of the governor to maintain Law and order with co-ordination of State Govt. and instead supporting sangh parivar to violate Law and order in the name of self defense!!!
If the Ruler itself is supporting this kind of activities just imagine what will be the future of India....
terrorists are trained and government is defending it.
They only have guts to fight someone wen they drink alchohol....
Let them practice or get trained!! Remember one thing - \ Jo bhi hota hai, Manzure khuda hota hai!! Maarne wale se bachane wala bada hai wahi hamara Parwardigar hai!!"
