Former Vice President Hamid Ansari remains in constant controversy due to his statements. Calling nationalism ‘poison’ or Jinnah’s picture in Aligarh Muslim University, opposing the triple talaq law, or the All India Personal Law Board’s proposal to set up Sharia courts in every district of the country, Hamid Ansari made a controversial statement. Going a step further in this direction, Hamid Ansari has once again given a controversial statement on Hindu nationalism. While addressing the Indian American Muslim Council program, it has been said that ‘Hindu nationalism is a matter of concern. People are being divided on religious lines in the country. According to Times Now Navbharat, a dispute is being created among the people regarding nationality. Especially people of a particular religion are being instigated. Intolerance is being fueled and an atmosphere of insecurity is being created in the country. According to Hindustan news, Hamid Ansari, from the forum of the organization which is accused of inciting riots in the country and links to Pakistani ISI, said that in recent years efforts are being made to replace civilian nationalism with cultural nationalism. The former Vice President said that intolerance on the basis of religion is being fueled by projecting the religious majority as a political monopoly.
This statement of the former Vice President is not surprising. Even before this, under the guise of liberalism and pseudo-secularism, pro-Muslim and anti-national statements have been made. Which gives an introduction to his true character. When the Balakot air strike happened, Hamid Ansari supported asking for evidence. In an interview to a news channel, he said that the people of the country have every right to question the Balakot airstrike. Now there is so much evidence available outside the country globally that you cannot hide the truth. When asked that there is talk that India did not shoot down Pakistan’s F-16 aircraft, he said that if I say that I have killed a lion, then I will also have to show that lion.
Former Vice President Hamid Ansari said in a program in Delhi that Pakistan was not only responsible for the partition in 1947, but India was also responsible for it. Ansari said that, ‘We are not ready to believe that we are equally responsible for the partition. The former Vice President said that Muslims were held responsible for the partition of the country due to political reasons. Ansari said that, ‘Wherever someone has done a wrong thing, you all know the culprit.’ If so, division is necessary. But when the politics turned, someone had to be made responsible. So they said that make them responsible, whom, make Muslims. It was accepted by all that Muslims should be made responsible.
On November 20, 2020, Hamid Ansari, on the occasion of the digital launch of Congress MP Shashi Tharoor’s book ‘Jjdddg ccdhlhlddg shddh chadgadyasthtddbtddd’, said that the country has already been a victim of two epidemics from Corona. These are religious fanaticism and aggressive nationalism. According to Ansari, patriotism is a more positive concept than these, as it is militarily and culturally defensive.
