TRS Helping Anti-Hindu PFI To Expand With MIM Support: BJP

Alleging that the Popular Front of India (PFI) was conspiring to convert India into an Islamic nation by 2040, Telangana BJP president Bandi Sanjay Kumar on Wednesday held the ruling TRS government responsible for the expansion of the PFI footprint in Telangana, and claimed that the TRS government was doing that with the support of the All-India Majlis-e-Ittehad-ul-Muslimeen (AIMIM).

Addressing a gathering at the Nagole crossroads on the completion of his 100-day Praja Sangrama Yatra foot march, Bandi alleged that the PFI extremists, known for beheading Hindus in other parts of the country, were conspiring to create terror in Telangana by indulging in bomb explosions.

"The PFI, which is a banned organisation all over the country, is operating with the blessings of the AIMIM leaders, and it is the TRS government which is responsible for the expansion of this extremist organisation. Some TRS leaders are patronising the PFI by providing funds to it," he said.

Sanjay sought to know why Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao was in a slumber till the National Investigation Agency (NIA) conducted raids on the PFI extremists in the State who were operating in the guise of gym instructors and voluntary organisations.

Stating that the BJP would go all out to bring about unity among Hindus and protect the Hindu dharma, the BJP State president said that if given a chance to rule the State, the BJP would make efforts to weed out extremist outfits like the PFI.
