FIR against BJP's Pragya Thakur over 'Hindus, keep knives sharp' speech in Karnataka

New Delhi/IBNS: A police case was Wednesday registered against Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) MP Pragya Thakur for allegedly making a provocative speech in Karnataka's Shivmogga.

Speaking at an event, Thakur had said Hindus have the right to respond to those who attack them and their dignity.

"Love jihad, they have a tradition of jihad, if nothing they do love jihad. Even if they love they do jihad in that. We (Hindus) too love, love the god, a sanyasi loves his god," Thakur said.

"Sanyasi says in this world created by god, end all the oppressors and sinful, if not the true definition of love will not survive here. So answer those involved in Love Jihad the same way. Protect your girls, teach them the right values," she added.

Thakur also called on Hindus to at least keep the knives in their homes sharp, as everyone has the right to protect themselves.
