Panaji: Congress party on Monday sought an apology from the state unit of BJP over BJP national president J P Nadda’s ‘adharma’ remark made during a meeting at Amona.
“No one ever did such an insult to the Goans. Calling our people adharmi is not tolerable and we will not tolerate such allegations, which will mar the identity of Goa,” Goa Pradesh Congress Committee (GPCC) president Girish Chodankar said while addressing a press conference in Panaji.
“We are God-fearing people. We have space for all religions. We are secular and everyone knows it. We will not allow BJP to finish our identity of social togetherness and tolerance for their political gains,” he added.
It is pertinent to note that Nadda, addressing the party workers at Amona, had said that there was a need to create a code of conduct to bring Adharma (non-righteousness) persons on the path of Dharma (righteousness).
