Taking name of Ram, BJP spreading agenda of Nathuram: Congress’ Kanhaiya Kumar

Hitting out at the BJP, Congress leader Kanhaiya Kumar says that by taking the name of Ram, the ruling party is spreading the communal and divisive agenda of Nathuram as a "political ploy".

In an interaction with PTI editors at the news agency's headquarters in New Delhi, he also said there was an effort to belittle the contribution of the Gandhi-Nehru family and claimed that "vyaktivaad" (individualism) was more "dangerous" than "parivarvaad" (dynasticism).

Mr. Kumar also claimed that the BJP was making an attempt to reduce the greatness of the Hindu religion, asserting that in Ram's concept there is no scope of hatred towards anyone.
