:dateline:Replying to a question posed by CPI(M) member KK Ragesh about the rising incidents of mob lynching in Rajya Sabha during questioning hour, the Union State Home Minister G. Kishan Reddy claimed that these incidents of mob lynching or communal violence have no relation with any particular political party.
“Available data shows that there is no common pattern in these incidents as they occurred in different states at different times. Incidents have happened in different states ruled by different political parties,” claimed Reddy.
He further said such incidents have been reported from Tripura, West Bengal and Kerala and had occurred previously also.
Reddy claimed that the BJP government was serious to control these incidents and the Indian PM Narendra Modi has also expressed concern over these incidents.
Oh, there is one common factor.
Congress or BJP.
The religion of the mobs.
