From Role of Muslims not portrayed properly: Azad:
…Addressing a public meeting organised by the Jamiat Ulama-I-Hind on the occasion of its second State-level meeting here on Thursday (5th Jan ’11) night, Mr. Azad asserted that Muslims of the country did not lag behind others in the fight for the country’s independence but they were ahead of others. Unfortunately, the facts were not put in proper perspective in the history, he stated.

Until or unless the imbeciles in this country (read secular Hindus) wake up from their deep slumber, politicians will continue spouting such nonsense.
