'Hindus should follow Muslim formula...' Assam politician Badruddin Ajmal on rising population
Assam politician and All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF) chief Badruddin Ajmal has stirred a row by saying "Hindu should follow Muslim formula" and "get their children married at a young age" while reacting to the rise in Muslim population, media reports said.
Ajmal said as quoted by NDTV, "Muslim men marry at the age of 20-22, and Muslim women also marry at 18 after the permissible age by the government. On the other hand, They (Hindus) keep one, two or three illegal wives before marriage, they don't give birth to babies, enjoy themselves and save money."
"After the age of 40 they get married under parental pressure... So, how can one expect that they will bear children after 40? If you sow in fertile land, only then you can bear good crops. There will then be growth."
"They (Hindus) should also follow the formula of Muslims and get their children married at a young age. Get them married at the age of 20-22, get the girls married at 18-20 years, and then see how many children are born," the Lok Sabha MP added.
Ajmal has also trained his guns at Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma who referred to "love jihad" while talking about Delhi's Shraddha Walkar murder case.
"The Chief Minister is one of the top leaders of the country today. So, who is stopping him, you also carry out four to five 'Love Jihad' and take away our Muslim girls. We will welcome it and won't even fight. It will also be seen how much power you have," Ajmal said.
