LUCKNOW, Nov 15: Uttar Pradesh MLA and Jansatta Dal (Loktantrik) chief Kunwar Raghuraj Pratap Singh, popularly known as Raja Bhaiya, said Hindus should learn unity from Islam.
He said many Muslims were associated with the Congress, Samajwadi Party and Left parties, but gave Islam priority despite their political affiliations.
Raja Bhaiya said Hindus should not confine themselves to any one political party. They should place their identity and faith above political parties on questions of Hindutva, he said.
He said that, barring one or two exceptions, most political parties did not want unity among Hindus.
On opposition to the proposed Ramkatha by Dhirendra Krishna Shastri in Kunda, Raja Bhaiya termed such demands unconstitutional. He advised critics to read Articles 25 and 26 of the Constitution.
The Ramkatha is scheduled to be held in Kunda from November 17 to 20. Raja Bhaiya said around 500 Pakistani Hindu refugees would also take part in the event.
