New Delhi:
A Delhi court Friday asked the city police to file a report
detailing the action taken on a complaint seeking registration of
an FIR against union Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde for his
remarks linking the BJP and the RSS to "Hindu terrorism".
Metropolitan Magistrate Viplav Dabas directed police to file an
action taken report by Feb 6 on a complaint filed by Right to
Information (RTI) activist Vivek Garg seeking registration of FIR
against Shinde for his remark against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)
and the Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS).
The complaint accused Shinde of making "imputations prejudicial to
national integration, uttering words with deliberate intent to
wound religious feelings of Hindus, defaming them, and insulting
their religion and beliefs".
Garg said the remark was made for "promoting enmity between
different groups on grounds of religion and wantonly giving
provocation with intent to cause religious riots".
"Shinde wilfully, maliciously and without any lawful right, with a
malafide intention deliberately made derogatory statement against
Hindus which were widely published in the newspapers and read by
countless people across the world even on net," the complainant
said.
Shinde had made the remarks at the Congress conclave in Jaipur
last month.
