Suicide bombers are being trained in Shaheen Bagh, says Union Minister Giriraj Singh

Union Minister Giriraj Singh has stirred controversy again claiming that suicide bombers are being trained in Shaheen Bagh.

“Shaheen Bagh protest is no longer a movement. Suicide bombers are being trained here. There is a clear conspiracy against India in the country’s capital,” tweeted Union Minister Giriraj Singh

The Union Minister for Animal Husbandry and Fisheries Giriraj Singh, is known for controversial comments, for which he has mostly gone unpunished.

Earlier Singh had said, "The tukde tukde gang has full support of Arvind Kejriwal. Till now, he has not given clearance to prosecute (former JNUSU president) Kanhaiya Kumar and (JNU student) Umar Khalid who raised seditious slogans like 'Bharat tere tukde honge' in JNU. Why is Kejriwal backing Sharjeel Imam who gave a call to cut off Assam from India? Kejriwal should tell whether he will give prosecution orders against Kanhaiya and Khalid or not," the BJP Lok Sabha MP from Begusarai said.

"If a state refuses to implement a law passed by Parliament, will democracy remain in this country? The Congress party, Mamata Banerjee and the tukde-tukde gang have made democracy a joke. They are using Shaheen Bagh as a pawn to further their ambitions," Singh said to ANI.

Since December 18, hundreds of men, women and children have sat on protest on the road at Shaheen Bagh in south Delhi, against the religion-based Citizenship (Amendment) Act or CAA, which enables non-Muslims from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan to become Indian citizens if they escaped religious persecution and entered India before 2015.
