Lucknow: Hindutva hawk and Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) leader Ashok Singhal on Wednesday appealed to the Muslim community to “hand over” Kashi, Mathura and Ayodhya to Hindus for “love and amicable atmosphere” in the society.
Addressing a programme where Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh was also present, Mr. Singhal said: “I again appeal to the Muslim community to hand over three places — Kashi, Mathura and Ayodhya — to Hindus peacefully…love and amity will prevail in the society.”
Reacting to Singhal’s call, one commentator on social media jokingly posted: “Didn’t know Muslims control these places”.
