Indian cricke­ter-turned-politi­cian says the BJP govern­ment has starte­d 'propag­anda war'Indian cricketer-turned-politician Navjot Singh Sidhu on Monday hit out at the Modi-led Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government for using the armed forces to fulfil its own ‘political’ interests. Stop politicising the army for your political motives Army is as sacred as the state! Stop politicising the army, it is as sacred as the state. According to Sidhu, the BJP was trying to dupe the public in the guise of having to wage war with a foreign enemy. The figure informally leaked to the Indian media by the Modi government sources who put the number of slain terrorists at 300.
