Introduce a law against those who don’t respect Vande Mataram, national flag: BJP MP

New Delhi: Responding to Asaduddin Owaisi’s comment that there should be a law against those who call Indian Muslims Pakistanis, BJP MP Vinay Katiyar has said that Muslims should not be even living in this country and they should go to Pakistan or Bangladesh, reported the ANI.

Katiyar, who founded the Vishwa Hindu Parishad’s (VHP) youth wing, Bajrang Dal, further said a bill should be introduced in Parliament that frames a punishment for those “who do not respect Vande Mataram, (and) those who insult the national flag, or hoist the Pakistani flag.”

Katiyar’s comment was a response to AIMIM president Asaduddin Owaisi demanded the framing of a law to punish anyone who calls an Indian Muslim a “Pakistani”.

Without referring to Owaisi, Katiyar further said that “Muslims partitioned the country” on religious lines.

“Muslims shouldn’t even be living in this country, they’re the ones who partitioned this country based on their population, so why do they need to live here? They were given separate territory, they should go to Pakistan or Bangladesh, what business do they have here,” said Katiyar.
