Sakshi Maharaj, BJP MPfrom Unnao: It is difficult to accept that he has made such an immature remark. 10 years he occupied a constitutional post and never said anything like that. All of a sudden he feels insecure which is unfortunate. Since Modiji, Yogiji came to power no communal incident has taken place. I feel he is going to join some political party soon.

K Rehman Khan, former minorities’ minister: What he has said is true and is the reality. Minorities are insecure. They are being forced to take certification of nationalism from Sangh parivar. They feel suffocated while being called anti-national and Pakistani

Meenakshi Lekhi, BJP MP: Now Hamid Ansari wants to be a leader of Muslims. All this while in office he never felt insecure. I always believed he was a well educated individual and a well informed bureaucrat. I feel he doesn’t read the data and facts available. His comments clearly look politically motivated.

Kailash Vijayvargiya, senior BJP leader: Someone sitting on such a high post and making such a statement is unfortunate. I don’t agree to what he has said and is disappointing. I am concerned as to what why made such remarks. Few incidents can’t make the entire country look like that. This is a negative approach.
