Ideological forefathers of BJP supported the British – Kharj
Sharing a post on social media, Mallikarjun Kharj said that the political and ideological ancestors of Prime Minister Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah supported the British and Muslim League against the Indians in the freedom struggle. Their ideological forefathers opposed Mahatma Gandhi’s ‘Quit India’ call in 1942, which was a movement led by Maulana Azad.
Shyama Mukherjee received support from the Muslim League – Kharj
Mallikarjun Kharge said everyone knows how Syama Prasad Mukherjee formed his governments in Bengal, Sindh and the North-West Frontier Province in the 1940s in alliance with the Muslim League. Didn’t Shyama Prasad Mukherjee write to the then British Governor how the Quit India Movement of 1942 could be ‘opposed’ and how the Congress should be suppressed? Did he say that ‘Indians will have to rely on the British’? Kharj asked.
