Centre misusing official machinery to crush dissent: WPI

Welfare Party of India national president S.Q.R. Ilyas has accused the Union government of misusing the official machinery to hound social workers and leaders of various organisations.

Addressing a public meeting here on Thursday, he said the Sangh Parivar strategy of using communal polarisation and murder to crush dissent had created a feeling of insecurity in the country. He said the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led government at the Centre was trying to subvert the Constitution.

Condemning the brutal murder of a tailor at Udaipur, he said fascist forces were using the incident to unleash violence on minority communities in the country. He also stressed the need to put up stiff resistance to the caste-based social order promoted by the Sangh Parivar organisations.
