Former Rajya Sabha member and Congress veteran Karan Singh on Saturday said the growing polarisation between the two main communities witnessed recently was extremely disturbing.
“We saw what havoc this polarisation caused decades ago resulting in the trifurcation of India. Under no circumstances can we afford polarisation to grow once again, as that can only bring death and destruction in its wake,” said Dr. Singh in a statement.
Dr. Singh said any outstanding problems such as ‘hijab’, ‘azan’, ‘halal’ and ‘loudspeakers’ must be resolved peacefully between the two communities and should not be allowed to assume formidable dimensions.
