Senior Congress leader Digvijaya Singh on Monday claimed 'Hindutva” is not a "dharma" (religion) as it involves attacking those who do not agree and said he believes in Sanatam dharm which preaches harmony and welfare of all.
Addressing a press conference in Jabalpur in Madhya Pradesh, the Congress Rajya Sabha member termed Bajrang Dal — the youth wing of Vishwa Hindu Parishad — a “goondon ki jamat” (group of goons).
“Ours is Sanatam dharm. We don't consider Hindutva a dharma. Slogans like 'Dharm Ki Jai Ho, Adharm Ka Nash Ho, Praniyo Me Saddhbhawna Ho, Vishwa Ka Kalyan Ho' mark gatherings of Sanatan Dharm. This is Sanatam Dharm,” he said.
