Calling the JNU row a result of "unholy nexus between the jihadists and the Leftists", Vishwa Hindu Parishad today hailed the government for taking "strong action" against those involved in seditious activities.
VHP's international joint general secretary Surendra Jain lashed out at Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi for his visit to JNU in support of "traitors", saying the party that had fought for the country's freedom under Mahatma Gandhi is now fighting for "seditious characters".
He also criticised the Left for its stand, saying it was behind the "killing" of many political opponents in Kerala and West Bengal.
"VHP appeals to all political parties not to convert the politics of opposition to politics of national destruction. They themselves cannot survive by ruining the country.
"It has become clear from the developments after the unfortunate incident that it was the result of the unholy nexus between the jihadists and the Leftists," claimed Jain.
