Speaking at the ‘Mohabbat Ki Dukaan’ event in US’ San Francisco Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said, “It [actions of the BJP-led govt] is being felt by the Muslims most directly because it is done most directly to them. But in fact, it is done to all communities. The way you [Muslims] are feeling attacked, I can guarantee Sikhs, Christians, Dalits, and tribals are feeling the same. You can’t cut hatred with hatred., but only with love and affection.”

“Also, this is a periodical thing. What is happening to Muslims in India today happened to Dalits in the 1980s,” he added.
