Narendra Modi’s snub to self-styled cow Rakhshaks ‘too little too late’: Dal Khalsa

August 7, 2016 | By

Amritsar: Strongly condemning the criminal misdeeds of cow-protection vigilantes, the Dal Khalsa has asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi as to why he took so many days and weeks to snub the cow Rakhshaks who have been playing havoc with the lives of ordinary Dalits and Muslims.

Taking a dig at Indian PM, the Dal Khalsa spokesman Kanwar Pal Singh wanted to know from Modi as to why he kept mum when the so-called cow vigilantes stripped the four Dalits to the waist, chained them to a car, and beat them for hours while the police and others looked on near Una (Gujarat). He blamed the government of the day were adopting a policy to patronize lawless vigilantism. He said no one was in doubt that these miscreants claiming to be cow protectors were directly affiliated with RSS and its offshoots VHP.

According to Dal Khalsa, Modi’s snub to so-called cow protectors came only after international media and the credible NGO’s took strong exception to religious intolerance under BJP regime. Apart from international criticism, he said even within the country there was hue and cry in the society against the sins of these cow-Rakhshaks that led Modi to break his shameful silence.

Referring to Modi’s statement asking the states to be tough against such miscreants, he said why the states have to look upon the Prime Minister to “guide them” to act against unlawful people even as the law and order was a state subject.

Let me tell you the PM, no state would act against these self-styled cow protectors because they are associated with the RSS that has made the cow a symbol of the Hindutva project.

Claiming that the Dalits of India were facing terrible prejudice, he claimed that these pseudo Hindu extremists under Modi’s BJP government were exploiting the situation and creating the atmosphere of hatred towards Dalits and other minorities.

He gave a clarion call to all oppressed classes and peoples to unite for struggle for dignity and justice.
