Shri Subhash Chandra has expressed strong objection to a Lok Sabha member’s comment of ‘Hindu Pakistan’.
On Thursday the leader stated that if the BJP is re-elected to power in the 2019 national elections it make India in to a ‘Hindu Pakistan’. His statement and what it implied kicked up a row among political fronts in the country.
Subhash Ji strongly condemned this term. He said that first the fictional ‘Hindu terror’ was being used and now another one. He called it a part of the agenda to malign the country and its people by comparing it with an unruly state that has been known to support terrorism and anti-India activities.
It was a fictional ‘Hindu Terror’ first & now it’s Hindu Pakistan! It’s an agenda to malign Indians and compare it with a rouge state that prides itself in harboring terrorists. This is insulting and an anti-Hindu statement.

He also observed that those who used another such term ‘saffron terrorism’ are in the government and asked, what more proof of secularism is needed?
People who called ‘Saffron Terrorism’ are in government, what more proof of secularism is required?

Delving in to the history of how Pakistan was created, he reminds that once it was a part of Akhand Bharat which was divided by Jinnah acting under the British. “They didn’t uphold Dharma but adopted terror as a state policy”. Elaborating further between the difference with Hindu Rashtra he said that the latter is Bharat with the principles of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam which means ‘the world is my family’ and is equal for every Hindu, that is a way of life and not a religion.
Pak was once a part of Akhand Bharat until Jinnah acted as guided by British. They didn’t uphold Dharma but adopted terror as a state policy. While, Hindu Rashtra means a Bharat with principles of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam, which is equal for every Hindu (A way of life, not religion)
