BJP slams Ex-Vice-President Hamid Ansari for ‘cultural nationalism’ remark

BJP has criticized former Vice-President, Hamid Ansari for his cultural nationalism remarks. Talking to media in New Delhi, senior party leader and Union Minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi condemned his remarks. Mr Naqvi said, it is unfortunate that when the country was celebrating Republic Day, a person who once occupied an important constitutional position was addressing an event organized by a platform that works against India. The minister said the event was organized by a group that had a link with SIMI and ISI. Mr. Naqvi said, it would have been better if Mr. Ansari would have spoken about the kind of abuse the minorities face in the country which sponsors Indian American Muslim Council.
