VHP President Pravin Togadias statement that Muslims should be stopped from buying property in Hindu-majority areas today (April 21) set off a political storm with BJPs rivals and an ally condemning it even as the Election Commission sought a recording of his speech. Speaking at a house in Bhavnagar, Gujarat, Togadia said This is being done by Muslims in villages and across India. Their strategy is to buy one house at a good price and then buy Hindu properties at throw-away prices...there are two ways to stop this...govt enforces Disturbed Areas Act. You put pressure on the government to enforce the Disturbed Areas Act the way we have in cities like Ahmedabad. The Disturbed Areas Act makes it tough to sell property to a member of the minority community in a neighbourhood. Togadia was also quoted as saying that ...for protecting the Hindus, it is okay to put pressure on anyone. I have done this before and kept the possession of the house with me for a long time using the Bajrang Dal poster. The Muslim fellow lost the house and his money and we should have it in us to take the law in our hands in an area we are in majority. NDA ally Shiromani Akali Dal said the Indian society has no place for such people, RSS dismissed the report, saying that no swayamsevak thinks on such lines. timesnow.tv/Debate-Toothless-versus-Togadia---1/videoshow/4452863.cms
