Stating that there is a plan to destroy India’s pluralistic culture of thousands of years, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Sunday said that India’s social, political and economic cohesion will be destroyed if people fall prey to the plan.
“They are giving catchy words and slogans for this. They are playing a drama by trying to change the name of the country. The BJP, which named its programmes like Make in India, Skill India and Start Up India, is now shocked by the name India. It is going to rename the country as Bharat. We are the ones who had Bharat Jodo,” the Chief Minister said during a felicitation to Congress Rajya Sabha member Syed Naseer Hussein, who was recently included in the Congress Working Committee, the highest decision body of the Congress. He is also the Congress whip in the Upper House.
