Modi’s anti-Muslim, tirade an outcome of early Shakha training | Faraz Ahmad
20 April 2024, by Faraz AhmadIt was in September 2002, after presiding over the pogrom of Muslims of Gujarat under the watchful eyes of its newly elevated chief minister Narendra Modi that he coined the term ‘paanch pachees’ to identify Muslims, the target of mob lynchings in February-March, 2002.
