All India Congress Committee (AICC) member K. Sivaji on Sunday slammed the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) government for “failing to protect the interests of the Muslim minorities in the State who are being attacked by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) men with the tacit support of the ruling party.”
Addressing a press conference, Mr. Sivaji alleged that Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy had been “prostrating before Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his political survival.”
He said the minorities were safe under the Congress rule at the Centre. But the BJP-led NDA government had been targeting and assaulting the Muslim minorities ever since it came to power.
