The Congress today expressed shock at RSS Sarsanghchalak Mohan Bhagwat’s comments as regards recent instances of mob lynching.
Congress spokesperson Anand Sharma said, “We are shocked at RSS chief’s insensitive comment. The issue is not Europe or India, English or Hindi. The killing of innocent, hapless people by agitated mobs is unacceptable to humanity. Languages don’t matter.”
Sharma said the Congress wants the RSS to clarify its stand on lynchings. “I demand that you clarify in India’s national interests and global perception, whether you endorse or condemn such killing of innocent men, women and children by mobs. Please come clean on this in India’s national interest,” Sharma said.
Sharma made the remarks in the wake of the RSS Sarsanghchalak saying that lynching was a word alien to India.
