All those residing in India are Hindus: Swamy creates controversy

May 30, 2015 19:01

Bharatiya Janata Party's Subramanian Swamy is once again in the spotlight after the comments he made at an event in Vadodara. You should understand that whoever lives in this country is Hindu, or his forefathers were Hindus. All those residing in this country are Hindus, this I can prove through DNA test. Even the DNA of Muslims and Christians are like ours (Hindus). They are all product of the same soil and should accept that they have not come from outside," said the leader.

Adding fuel to the fire, Swamy blamed Islam and Christianity for religious conversion and said it was ingrained in their religion. Islam says those who do not believe in Islam are Kafir. Christians similarly say that those who do not believe in our religion are a prey of Satan and it is our duty to get them rid of it. And therefore Islam and Christianity believe completely in religious conversion and even consider it a pious, religious work, and that gives rise to storm, he said.
