PRESS STATEMENT
Pratiba Patil’s statement on veil system
Chennai, 18 June, 2007: The Council vehemently condemns the baseless and sacrilegious assertion of the Presidential candidate Ms. Pratiba Patilthat that the
“pardah system” came into vogue to save Hindu women from the Muslim Mughals. The staunch Congress worker is singing the Sangh Parivarian songs, obviously, to garner a portion of the votes of the Saffron Brigade and its political satellites. Coming events cast their shadows ahead. If this is her attitude towards Islam and Muslims before she becomes the First Lady of the land, the Council shudders to think what she would not do to Islam and its followers if or when she gets elected. The Council demands to know whether the Congress Party endorses the view expressed by her.
