NEW DELHI: Union Minister Jitendra Singh on Monday alleged that successive Congress Governments have failed to respond to the “injustice and oppression” unleashed on minorities in Pakistan and Bangladesh and Prime Minister Narendra Modi was now giving succour to these people.
The Union Minister for the PMO said even Jawaharlal Nehru, as Prime Minister, had expressed concern over the plight of minorities in Pakistan and Hindu refugees coming from the then East Pakistan, which is now Bangladesh.
“The matter of fact is that successive Congress Governments have, from time to time, been ceased of the injustice and oppression unleashed on the minorities in Pakistan and Bangladesh but they did not have the courage to respond. It was Prime Minister Narendra Modi who had the courage, conviction and capacity to take decisive initiative on the issue,” he said here. (AGENCIES)
