Alleging that BJP leader Narendra Modi was hell bent on building a "Hindu Rashtra", Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee today said the secular India would defeat him in his design.
"There is no doubt that Modi is hell bent on building a Hindu Rashtra. The secular India would defeat Modi in his design", JKPCC President Saif-ud-Din Soz said while addressing a gathering of intellectuals at Kunjwani, near here today.
Soz also alleged that because of Modi's style of functioning and his ideas based on "extreme sectarianism", even BJP's top brass was feeling threatened.
The BJP top leadership is feeling the growth of a personality cult at the cost of the party itself, he said.
Soz also told the gathering that India's democracy and its secular institutions had become strong and Modi's alleged sectarian and communal politics would be defeated.
He also appealed to the gathering to carry the message of togetherness and secularism in India vigorously to the neighbourhood and vote for Ghulam Nabi Azad and Madan Lal Sharma and other candidates fielded by NC-INC coalition and make them win with a thumping majority.
