Congress Government permits ‘Unity March’ by radical Islamist outfit Popular Front of India in Kota (Rajasthan)

Editorial comment

Realise that Congress calls Hindus and their organisations ‘Saffron Terrorists’ while on the other hand; they pamper extremists’ groups.

Kota (Rajasthan) – On 17th February, Popular Front of India (PFI), a radical Islamist outfit, organised a ‘Unity March’ here on the occasion of the PFI’s foundation day in support of the students protesting against the Hijab ban in educational institutions of Karnataka.

BJP National Spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla said, “The NIA has designated PFI as a radical hate group. A group that indulges in extremist and terror activities. Many States have banned PFI. Their role in anti-CAA riots is well-known and is being investigated. Even the funds received by the PFI to orchestrate these riots have been under ED’s scanner. Despite the plethora of charges and a long list of extremist activities that the PFI has been indulging in, the Congress party continues to provide patronage and legitimacy to the PFI”.

BJP State President for Rajasthan, Satish Poonia, lambasted the Ashok Gehlot Government saying, “Congress Government gave permission to a blacklisted organisation like the PFI to conduct a rally because it wants to indulge in appeasement politics while emboldening such organisations that jeopardise the security of the Nation”.
