"Congress should clarify whether this is their official stand. This is appeasement and the vote bank politics. For sake of votes, you are even ready to put to peril the safety, security and unity of the country. I deplore such moves by Congress," said Muraleedharan, who is Minister of State for External Affairs.

Congress leader Mullappally Ramachandran later said that Congress does not have any connection with Welfare Party, which is a political outfit of the Jamaat-e-Islami. (ANI)
