Former Chief Minister and Congress candidate from Amritsar Capt Amarinder Singh today said that the BJP leader Narendra Modi was a threat to Indian democracy and democratic values of secularism and inclusiveness. He said, it was most unlikely that Indian voters can accept such a pisive leader whose only qualification was his presiding over the killing of innocent Muslims in Gujarat.He also demanded thorough inquiry into the suicide committed by Sunny Johar, a close aide of Bikram Majithia amidst the allegations that he had named him (Majithia) in the suicide note.In an informal conversation with reporters before starting his campaign today, Capt Amarinder warned that in case Modi becomes the Prime Minister there is every apprehension of riots taking place.“Let us not forget the way he began his innings as the Gujarat Chief Minister and God forbid if he becomes the Prime Minister he may repeat the same”, he said, while adding, “minorities are traumatised and terrorised in Gujarat whether these be the Muslims, Christians or the Sikhs”.Replying to a question on the suicide by a youth Akali leader from Ludhiana, the former Chief Minister said, he had been told that the deceased had blamed Majithia for his suicide. “Now the police are trying to hush-up the matter”, he said, adding, “I hope the justice is done into the matter and whosoever is guilty should be punished”.
