Ghulam Nabi Azad compares RSS with ISIS
New Delhi, Mar 12 (IBNS) Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad has triggered a controversy by drawing a parallel between the RSS and militant outfit ISIS.
"We oppose organisations like ISIS like we do oppose the RSS. If those among us, in Islam, too do wrong things, they are no way less than RSS," Azad said.
He said: "We need to understand why Muslims are taking part in it? Why they are getting trapped."
The RSS is the ideological patron of the BJP.
