Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Sunday called the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh and its allied organisations as ”factories of lies.”

Responding to a question by reporters on the BJP calling the five guarantees of the Congress government as ”failures”, Siddaramaiah termed the BJP and the Sangh Parivar a ”factory of lies.”

To another query about a Karnataka religious teacher stating that India should become a Hindu nation if it has to survive, the chief minister said that this is the slogan of the BJP. ”The Jan Sangh wanted India to become a Hindu nation when it was started in 1950 but ours is a diverse country where not only Hindus, but Christians, Muslims, Jains and Buddhists also live. Our country is a plural country. It is not possible to make a nation only for Hindus,” he said.
