Varasani (Uttar Pradesh) [India], January 26 (ANI): Senior Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh leader Indresh Kumar on Tuesday said that India needs patriots like Abdul Kalam and not traitors like Muhammad Ali Jinnah and added that the people of the latter's mindset should be completely boycotted.

It is a country of scientists like Kalam. There is no need for people like Jinnah and the people of his mindset. They should be boycotted completely.'"Jinnah and Muslim League broke our motherland and made us fight with one another. It is a sin to call them good people and patriots," he added.

The anti-social elements used to molest the women in broad daylight, there was no help. today, we have a strong government, there are no more riots," he said while hailing the Yogi Adityanath government in the state.
