Countering Congress president Sonia Gandhi's statement on the alleged insecurity of minority communities, the
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Sunday said that there was no minority or majority because every community is essentially Indian.
"These people have not only made the minority insecure, but the majority insecure too. Congress never worked for leading a cohesive
government for working for the poor of this country, they looted and indulged in all kinds of corrupt practices. They are trying to break

and the minorities are feeling increasingly insecure.
