PATRIOTISM AND PEACE: THE BJP VERSION
Prime
ministerial aspirant L K Advani and VHP’s international
president Ashok Singhal are gentlemen that is when they

commission. Perhaps it may be a certain guilt that
persuaded the peace-loving Singhal to appeal to the
Muslim religious leaders the other day to issue a
'fatwa' calling upon Muslim groups to declare India as
Dar-ul Aman (land of peace) as opposed to Dar-ul Harb
(land where jihad is legitimate)
