Dispur, 28/8: Congress’s Assam unit president Bhupen Bora on Friday apologised for drawing a parallel between ‘love jihad’ and Lord Krishna’s relationship with Rukmini while commenting on the triple murder case in Golaghat.
On Monday, a 25-year-old man killed his wife and her parents over some family issues and later surrendered before the police in Golaghat district. Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has been claiming that it was a case of ‘love jihad’ as the husband was Muslim and the wife a Hindu.
Reacting to it, Bora said, “All is fair in love and war. There are many stories in our ancient texts, including Krishna eloping with Rukmini, and the chief minister should not harp about marriages between people of different religions and communities in today’s age.
