Congress president, Sonia
Gandhi, attacked indirectly on BJP, said, “‘communal thoughts and person’ are
trying to capture the heritage of renowned social reformer Sri Narayan Guru.
Sonia Gandhi said what Guru had taught is being tried to make communal, and it
is a cheat for him.”
She said during her addressing
in the opening of 83rd annual pilgrimage of Sivagiri Mutt here, “Prejudice;
bigotry and dividing our diverse society; the people who intend to obtain the
ruling power; and the communal thoughts all have tried to capture the heritage
of Sri Narayan Guru.”
She further added, “I think, ‘it
is a big deception with Naryan Guru.’” The statement of Sonia Gandhi on the
background of Sree Narayana Dharma Paripalana Yogam(SNDP) associated with BJP
in Kerla has importance. There is assembly election next year in Kerla and SNDP
is an organization of backward Ezhwa community. The community has its strong
hold.
Sonia said, “Narayan Guru
believed in respect of all religions; and he preached to his disciples to
respect all religion.”
She said, “He had stressed
publically the need of promoting the universal peace, harmony and prosperity of
all religion and avoiding the religious conflict in 1924 at Aluva a place in
Ernakulam.”
Sonia said, “ Guru had founded
the Sivagiri Mutt as chief symbol of social unity and reform.”
