Security of Hindus in Meghalaya? VHP urges Centre and State govt to ensure safety of Hindus in the North Eastern State

Shillong, Nov 4: Condemning the Oct 28 violence in the Shillong district of Meghalaya, the Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP) urged the State as well as Central governments to ensure the safety of Hindus of the northeastern State.

 

 

 

 

Central Secretary General of VHP Milind Parande said, "The orgy of violence that took place in Meghalaya's capital Shillong on October 28, 2022, is highly condemnable. The manner in which the protest against ostensive unemployment by the Federation of Khasi-Jaintia and Garo People (FKJGP) turned into an all-out violent frenzy, is a cause of concern not only for the Meghalaya government or the central government but for the entire country also."

 

 

 

 

 

He further demanded a peaceful Hindu society of the state by taking stringent action against the organizations acting as hauler. "The government should ensure the security of the innocent and peaceful Hindu society of the state by taking stringent action against the organizations acting as the hauler and mover agencies of the path of violence and separatism. Along with this, the political organizations of the secular fraternity, who give nourishment to the violence mongers, should also be pulled up and taught good lessons in constitution, democracy, dialogue and rule of law," said the Central Secretary General of VHP.

 

The VHP Secretary-General also said that such violence that has been going on for the last few years at the nods and winks of anti-national elements, is also quite apparently adversely impacting the development of Meghalaya. Parande also urged the youth of Meghalaya that the solution to every problem in a democracy is through dialogue and not violence.
