“We will pass a resolution in the Bengal Assembly during the ongoing monsoon session condemning junior home minister Reddy’s statement in the Lok Sabha. The speaker of the Assembly has given the permission to move the resolution, ” the leader of the Opposition in the Assembly, Abdul Mannan of the Congress, said on Wednesday. “The madarsas at these two locations in Bengal were being used for the radicalisation of youths and recruitment activities. All Hindus are not terrorists and similarly, all Muslims cannot be branded as terrorists,” Mannan said. Echoing Mannan, Left legislature party leader Sujan Chakraborty claimed that the madarsas in Bengal had had a tradition of educating both Hindu and Muslim students.
