National Conference (NC) president Dr. Farooq Abdullah and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) president Mehbooba Mufti on Tuesday lashed out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi over his recent remarks about Muslims during a poll speech.
Speaking at a poll rally, PM Modi said the Congress would redistribute the wealth of the people to Muslims if it comes to power. He said the Congress plans to give the people’s hard-earned money and valuables, including mangalsutra, to “infiltrators” and “those who have more children”.
“I am saddened to hear the PM’s recent speech wherein he targeted the minority community of India. I regret that our PM has said such a thing. Our Islam and Allah teach us to walk together with everyone. Our religion never taught us to look down upon other religions, instead always taught us to respect other religions,” Dr. Abdullah said.
