"There should be no place of religion in politics," Congress leader Digvijaya Singh said
"Soft-Hindutva" means nothing and Hindutva has "nothing to do with religion", senior Congress leader Digvijaya Singh told NDTV while responding to a question on whether the Congress is playing to the Hindu majority for political advantage.
"Hindutva has nothing to do with religion, so there is no meaning of soft-hard Hindutva," the Rajya Sabha MP told NDTV in an interview on the Congress's preparations for the Madhya Pradesh Assembly polls and its expectations.
"There should be no place of religion in politics, it is a question of religious faith, every person has the right to follow his religion. Seeking votes in the name of religion is a legal offence," he said.
