Over four years later,
the men are still free. The clear message is that
this is a Hindu majoritarian country and anybody who does anything
or takes any action which is against the sentiment
of the Hindus of India are going to be targeted. If there is evidence
that certain people have been guilty of things
like lynching, it is not the business
of a political party to condone them or felicitate them. At the same time, to generalise
from this incident to mean that this is the standard
practice in India, this is the character of
the BJP, is, to my mind, an unwarranted assumption

Over four years later,
the men are still free.
00:00:05.004 --> 00:00:08.076
The clear message is that
this is a Hindu majoritarian country
00:00:08.076 --> 00:00:11.088
and anybody who does anything
or takes any action
00:00:11.088 --> 00:00:16.000
which is against the sentiment
of the Hindus of India
00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:17.076
are going to be targeted.
00:00:18.076 --> 00:00:21.084
If there is evidence
that certain people
00:00:21.084 --> 00:00:25.000
have been guilty of things
like lynching,
00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:27.044
it is not the business
of a political party
00:00:27.044 --> 00:00:31.999
to condone them or felicitate them.
00:00:32.028 --> 00:00:37.012
At the same time, to generalise
from this incident
00:00:37.012 --> 00:00:40.998
to mean that this is the standard
practice in India,
00:00:40.998 --> 00:00:46.024
this is the character of
the BJP, is, to my mind,
00:00:46.024 --> 00:00:48.012
an unwarranted assumption.
