Radical Hindutva is a threat to the nation : Tushar Gandhi

Tushar Gandhi, great-grandson of Mohandas Gandhi, expresses his hatred towards Hindus

Mumbai – We have no conflict with those who accept everyone as Hindus. We have no dispute with Hindutva, but we exclude radical Hindutva followers. Those who talk about ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’ (the world is one family) and discriminate among people, these radical Hindutva followers are a threat to the country,” said Tushar Gandhi in an interview with a news channel. (Can Tushar Gandhi provide even one example of how radical Hindutva followers have posed a threat to the country ? On the contrary, history shows that Mohandas Gandhi endangered the country under the guise of secularism – Editor).

Tushar Gandhi has extended his support to the Maha Vikas Aghadi in the Lok Sabha elections and is campaigning for it.

Editorial Perspective

Partition occurred due to radical and Jihadi Muslims; Hindus were forced to flee Kashmir; Hindu processions are attacked from mosques; but these incidents are not deemed dangerous for the nation. However, Hindus who uphold Hindutva for the protection of the country are considered a threat. Such views of Tushar Gandhi prove that he is truly the heir of Mohandas Gandhi.
