y the Bhartiya Janata Party government of Shivraj Singh Chauhan, has accounted for 1.5 lakh of those
signatures followed by Rajasthan with 70,000 in the second place, claimed RSS functionary Indresh
Kumar, the force behind MRM, while addressing a state-level convention in Bhopal. Floated a decade
ago, Muslim Rashtriya Manch’s first signature campaign was against cow slaughter. The organisation
reportedly has presence in more than 300 districts of 20 states. Kumar, who was accused of involvement
in right-wing Hindu terror cases, made light of the accusations saying he enjoyed his stay in the custody

called a traitor by British officials but whose photograph do we hang on walls today,’’ he asked drawing a
parallel, and claimed that both Hindus and Muslims prayed in his support. “For decades you were warned
to keep off the RSS but the Sachar Committee report brought out your plight,’’ Kumar said. “Besides
