Prophet Row: Prahlad Patel blames Pakistan for clashes in India

Union Minister Prahlad Patel on Saturday alleged Pakistan's role behind violent protests that rattled various parts of the country on Friday over the raging row on controversial remarks of a BJP spokesperson against Prophet Muhammad. The minister said that "certain elements are jealous of India's growing stature."

The Minister's remarks came during a visit to Madhya Pradesh's Jabalpur district on Saturday. The society should have to be vigilant against such activities, said the Minister.
