Had the decision been taken 70 years ago, the country would not have been ruined… Arshad Madani told Congress on the promise of ban on Bajrang Dal

Mumbai: A new statement of Maulana Arshad Madani has come to the fore in the convention of Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind at Azad Maidan in Mumbai. Describing Bajrang Dal as a group of sectarians, he said that if the Congress had taken the decision to ban it 70 years ago, the country would not have been ruined. He said that there were some communal forces in the Congress too, which did great harm to the country.

Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind President Syed Arshad Madani said, the Congress party in its manifesto had talked about shutting down the sectarian Jamaat Bajrang Dal. If he had taken this decision 70 years ago, the country would not have been ruined.

‘Congress is correcting its mistake’

Arshad Madani said, ‘When he said this, there was hue and cry that the Congress made a mistake by including it in its manifesto. I understood that it was not my mistake but my mistake that was being rectified. He says that Congress is rectifying its 70 years old mistake.

Earlier, Arshad Madani had said that all those who are talking about making the country a Hindu Rashtra are traitors. He said that if those who talk about creating a Hindu country are not traitors, then those who demand a Muslim country are also not traitors.

Congress had promised in Karnataka elections

During the Karnataka elections, the Congress had promised in its manifesto that it would ban Bajrang Dal if it formed the government. There was a lot of controversy regarding this. Attacking the Congress, the BJP called it an insult to Bajrang Bali.
