"This is Gandhi ji's India, this is India of his dreams. This is not India of RSS's or Togadia's dreams. I strongly condemn the ink attack (on Engineer Rashid). The government should seriously look into these matters. The situation has worsened in the last one and a half years and we do not know what might happen in next three and a half years," Alvi told ANI.
