New Delhi: Pitching for ‘love jihad’ law in West Bengal, Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Narottam Mishra said if the BJP forms government in the state then he would request the Chief Minister to bring ‘love jihad’ law in the state.
Addressing a gathering in Bengal’s Asansol, Mishra said he is not against love but ‘jihad’.
“Love jihad will make my daughter and sister safe. Don’t cheat them in the name of love. We are not against love but jihad. We will not tolerate anyone who takes them towards the path of love jihad,” said the Home Minister.
These laws are only meant to be used by goons to persecute Muslim men They serve no public interest but allow criminal mobs to now interfere even more in the private lives of citizens
New Delhi: AIMIM president Asaduddin Owaisi today said that ‘love jihad’ laws serve no public interest and are only meant to be used by goons to “persecute” Muslim men.
Taking to his Twitter, Owaisi asked what “community interests” are satisfied by jailing Muslim men in such large numbers?
“These laws are only meant to be used by goons to persecute Muslim men. They serve no public interest but allow criminal mobs to now interfere even more in the private lives of citizens,” he added.
