Amidst growing demands for a ban on Bajrang Dal, the Hindu outfit on Thursday warned that any such move would have 8216;grave consequences8217; for the government politically as there is 8216;no legal ground8217; for such an action.
Bajrang Dal convenor Prakash Sharma insisted that his outfit could not be compared with SIMI as is being done by some political parties.
8220;The SIMI carries out outright hate campaigns which are anti-India and anti-people while the Bajrang Dal only has the motive to defend Hindu rights,8221; he said while reacting to demands for imposing a ban on the Dal.
8220;When the Centre is incapable of collecting enough evidence to ban SIMI, what evidence you think they may have against us,8221; Sharma said, adding 8216;in case they ban us it will have grave consequences for the government politically.8217;
