Mishra challenged Sadhvi directly: who are “people of other faiths” ? If you have the courage, don’t stop at their feet — break their hands as well.
Sadhvi Pragya further said that as a girl grows up she begins to take independent decisions and may sometimes attempt to run away from home.
Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur, recently acquitted in the Malegaon blast case, reiterated her earlier stance on weapons.
Among them are BJP’s former Member of Parliament Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur and Lieutenant Colonel Prasad Purohit.
“We welcome the court’s verdict,” said BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad in response.
A second and equally important question arises—who will compensate these Hindutva supporters for the suffering they endured over the past 17 years?
Congress had taken vindictive action against the devout Hindus; but the Courts decision has exposed the fact that it was a conspiracy to bring disrepute on Hindu Dharma.
Among the 323 witnesses examined, 34 turned hostile. Many of them told the court that the Anti-Terrorism Squad forced them to give statements.
Col. Purohit, who risked his life for the country, spent 17 years of his prime under the shadow of defamation as an accused. Who will compensate him?
The then Union Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde later publicly admitted that the use of the term ‘Hindu terrorism’ during Malegaon case was a mistake.
