New Delhi: TheBharatiya Janata Party(BJP) on Tuesday came down heavily on Congress vice presidentRahul Gandhiand Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan for their comments on growing intolerance.
Addressing a press conference, BJP leader Shahnawaz Hussain slammed Aamir Khan for saying he has been "alarmed" by a number of incidences and his wife Kiran Rao even suggested that they should probably leave the country.
Hitting back at the Bollywood superstar, Shahnawaz said though Aamir has the Right to Freedom of Expression, but he should remember that it is the same country which has bestowed upon immense love, respect and wealth on him.
“No country better than India for Muslims,” Shahnawaz asserted, adding that, “Aamir will not get a better country than India to live and a Hindu as a neighbour.
“Where will one go after leaving this country, wherever in the world you go, you will find intolerance,” he added.
Reacting to Rahul Gandhi's tweets, the BJP spokesperson said the Congress vice president should reflect on his own party's history and advised him not to give lessons on tolerance.
Congress which has blots of 1984 anti-Sikh riots many other communal violences shouldn't advise the nation on tolerance, the BJP leader said.
Shahnawaz's statements cam after Rahul today said it would be better for the government to stop "bullying, threatening and abusing" and instead reach out to the people.
"Instead of branding all those who question the Govt & Modiji- as unpatriotic, anti national or 'motivated' the Govt would do better to reach out to people to understand what's disturbing them," the Congress leader tweeted.
The BJP spokesperson also took potshots at political parties trying to defame the BJP_led government and Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Citing PM's statement in Malaysia that 'terror cannot be linked with religion', Shahnawaz said, it is a best statement a leader can give.
