Telangana BJP MP Appeals Christians' Support Against Love Jihad, Tears Bangladesh Flag During Goa Event
T Raja Singh, a BJP MLA from Telangana, made controversial remarks, warning that India may not have a Hindu Prime Minister in the next 20-30 years if the population of "jihadis" increases.
Telangana BJP MLA T Raja Singh gave controversial remarks on Sunday appealing to Christians to join hands with Hindus for the united fight against "love jihad" which is affecting both religions.
Addressing a Bajrand Dal rally at Curchorem in south Goa, the BJP legislator said India won't have a Hindu prime minister in the next 20 to 30 years if the population of "jihadis" increases and the number of their legislators goes up.
"Love Jihadis don't only target Hindus. I want to appeal to our Christian brothers from Goa. You should watch the Kerala Files (Story) movie even though the film doesn't tell the entire story," Singh said, as per a PTI report.
"The movie shows how in the name of love jihad, Hindu and Christian girls were lured. Hindus have kept their doors open for Christian brothers to fight against love jihad. Do join hands...our strength will increase," he said.
"Love jihad" is a term coined by the members of the right wing claiming it is a practice by Muslim men to lure women from other religions into marriage and force them to change their faith.
The Telangana legislator further said Hindus won't be able to organise processions for festivals like Ram Navami, Hanuman Jayanti etc in the next 10 to 20 years considering the direction of the population trend in India.
"If the population of Jihadis increases and if the number of their MLAs and MPs go up, the prime minister of India won't be a Hindu but a Muslim in the next 20-25 years," the BJP leader said.
In his 48-minute speech, Singh also mentioned Bangladesh alleging Hindus in the neighbouring country were being killed and their shops looted. “They are appealing for help. I want to say that ‘Bajrangi’ is ready to fight for the protection of Hindus in Bangladesh. Modi ji, just open the gates for 15 minutes and we will do it,” he said, reported the Indian Express.
He tore a flag of Bangladesh on stage and said, "Whoever comes up against India will suffer the same fate.” He also pulled out a sword saying it is "not just to be kept in its sheath. This should be in the home of every Hindu."
