When Congress MP Manickam Tagore compared RSS with terrorist organization Al-Qaeda, BJP got angry. BJP spokesperson Nalin Kohli told Times Now channel that Congress has lost its mind. Nalin Kohli asked what Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi have to say on this. At the same time, Congress’s ally Samajwadi Party termed it wrong to compare RSS with Al-Qaeda. Samajwadi Party spokesperson IP Singh, on this question asked by the channel, said that RSS should not have been compared with Al-Qaeda. SP spokesperson said that the majority in the country is Hindu. RSS is an organization of Hindus. Comparison of Al-Qaeda and RSS can worsen the communal atmosphere in the country.
