Ex-CEC SY Quraishi responds to BJP MP Nishikant Dubey's 'Muslim commissioner' remark
Former CEC SY Quraishi responded to BJP MP Nishikant Dubey's remark that Quraishi was a "Muslim commissioner" rather than "election commissioner". "I believe in...idea of India where an individual is defined by his/her talents and contributions and not by their religious identities," he said. Quraishi added, "For some, religious identities are staple to forward their hateful politics."
