VHP to start campaign against Tabligi Jamaat: Togadia

Beawar, May 14 (UNI) Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) will soon start a campaign against Muslim fundamentalist group, Tabligi Jamaat.

Announcing this here today, Praveen Togadia, general secretary, VHP, charged Tabligi Jamaat of being Pakistani agents and said Jamaat members are working for several Pakistani terrorist groups.

He alleged ''Jamaat has hand in the murder of Pakistan cricket coach Bob Woolmer, bombing of US World Trade Centre and many other such terrorist strikes.'' Saying the campaign will take off from Rajasthan, he said Jamaat men will not be allowed to enter the state.

The recent VHP sponsored attacks on Christian preachers and pastors in various parts of the state, he said, were the outcome of religious conversions. He added that the pastors have earned the ire of the people because they had been carrying out conversions for quite some time.

He categorically said VHP activists do not attack or harm anybody without reason.

Mr Togadia said VHP never forces anybody to convert but has only facilitated the reconversion of those Hindus, who were forcibly converted to Islam during the Mughal period.
