Backing party MP, Shashi Tharoor, the Kerala unit of the Congress today fully endorsed his remarks that if the BJP is voted to power, it will pave the way for creation of a "Hindu Pakistan."
In a statement extending support to Tharoor, KPCC president Hassan said the remark that BJP would turn the nation into a theocratic state was a "general sentiment expressed by democratic and secular Congress workers."
Echoing similar views, Opposition leader and former KPCC president Ramesh Chennithala said "there is nothing wrong in Tharoor's statement."
