Facing accusations of pursuing communal agenda against the backdrop of conversion in Agra, the government today asserted in Lok Sabha that it was committed to maintain communal harmony and suggested that all states as well as the Centre should have anti-conversion laws.
Should we go for it or not........Replying to a debate on conversions even as several opposition parties staged a walkout, Parliamentary Affairs Minister M Venkaiah Naidu rejected allegations against "mother" organisation RSS and accused the opposition parties of spreading "misinformation" to "tar" the image of the Sangh as well as that of the Modi government.
During the discussion that was taken up after a round of uproar on the second straight day, opposition parties attacked the government, RSS and its affiliates, accusing them of creating communal polarisation and tensions, while citing the case of conversion of some Muslims in Agra.
Hitting back at the opposition and taking pot-shots at Congress which has been "rejected" in Lok Sabha polls, he said "some people are allergic to the word Hindu" and they target RSS and the government over any or other development that may occur in any state, ruled by any party.
On the particular incident of conversion in Agra, he made it clear that the Centre had no role in dealing with it as it was a subject matter of the Uttar Pradesh government and the local administration should take action.
