Hindus should boycott anti-Hindu Brinda Karat and her party in forthcoming elections. If Hindu community is fundamentalist, then Brinda Karat would not dare to say such statements! Can Brinda Karat dare to call Muslim community as fundamentalist?

New Delhi: Communist Party of India-Marxist leader Brinda Karat was in the firing line in Rajya Sabha on Thursday when she dubbed the entire Hindu community as fundamentalist.

Members of the Bharatiya Janata Party disrupted proceedings in the Upper House as Karat read out a confessional statement allegedly given by a riot-accused, who had conceded that Hindu fundamentalists were behind the incidents of violence in Malegaon.

Amidst the pandemonium, the House was adjourned till 1.30 pm.

"She made a sweeping statement against Hindus. She is a Hindu herself and this kind of statement was not expected from her," former finance minister Yashwant Singh told rediff.com.

Science and Technology and Ocean Development Minister Kapil Sibal said, "Criminals are criminals; no matter which religion they come from. And hence the whole community should not be personally identified."
