There has been a ruckus about the new book Sunrise over Ayodhya by former Union Minister and senior Congress leader Salman Khurshid. It is alleged that in his book, he has tried to defame Hindutva by comparing it with terrorism. Now a lawyer of the Supreme Court has approached the Delhi Police regarding this book. A complaint has been lodged against Salman Khurshid with the Delhi Police.
Salman’s book was released on Wednesday and today a complaint has been filed against him. The complaint has been filed against his remarks in Khurshid’s book Sunrise over Ayodhya. A lawyer named Vivek Garg has filed a complaint with the Delhi Police Commissioner and requested him to register a case. Garg has alleged that in the book, Salman Khurshid has compared Hindutva with the dreaded terrorist organization ISIS and Boko Haram.
In his complaint, Vivek Garg has demanded to register a case against Khurshid for contempt of Supreme Court and trying to disturb social harmony. According to the report, Salman Khurshid has said in his book that Hindutva is setting aside the Sanatan and ancient Hinduism of sages, which is in every way like ISIS and jihadi Islamic organizations like Boko Haram.
When asked the reason for this, Salman said that Hinduism is a very high level religion. There can be no greater inspiration than the inspiration given by Gandhiji for this. Why should I accept a new label? I will speak even if someone insults Hinduism. I said that those who do politics of Hindutva are wrong and ISIS is also wrong.
At the same time, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has targeted Sonia and Rahul Gandhi. BJP spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia said on Thursday that Hindutva is compared with terrorist organizations ISIS and Boko Haram. He said that this is not just the line of Salman Khurshid or some Congress leaders, but the ideology of the Congress party today. This happens again and again at the behest of Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi.
Earlier, BJP leader Amit Malviya tweeted and shared the page of the book where Khurshid compared Hindutva with terrorist organizations like ISIS and Boko Haram. Malviya tweeted that Salman Khurshid wrote in his book, Hindutva jihadi is like Islamic organization ISIS and Boko Haram. Malviya further wrote, what else can we expect from the person whose party coined the term saffron terrorism only to equate it with Islamic Jihad, to get Muslim votes?
