MoS slams Imran Khan
The MoS Home, GK Reddy has also slammed the Pak PM for the same video via Twitter. He said that Pakistan should focus on the persecution of minorities unfolding in his country. Reddy also asserted that RSS is a "disciplined" organisation and they have been carrying out marches since 1925. MoS further added that India is a"secular" nation and Pakistan is a country that has been sheltering terrorists on its soil.
A rogue nation which patented genocide by systematic persecution of Hindus in their country and which breeds terror across the world including giving shelter to cannibals like Osama Bin Laden blames a disciplined cultural organisation meant for protecting values.
