Activist Rahul Easwar has taken offence to Sadhvi Prachi and her video where she states 'let's make India Muslim free'. The activist filed an FIR against her on Wednesday evening at Trivandrum, Kerala and has also asked that the video be taken down.

Speaking exclusively to dna, Rahul Easwar said, "I have never hidden the fact that I have right wing views, though I am not affiliated to any political party. But Sadhvi Prachi's statements cannot be condoned and they do not serve any purpose. Her statement about making India Muslim-free is exactly like what the Germans said decades back about the Jews. Such statements create a negative vibe in the country and I strongly believe she should be arrested and put behind bars symbolically for a few days at least!"

The activist also adds that he has asked for the videos to be taken down in his FIR. In the FIR, he alleges that constitutional rights have been violated by her statements and she should be charged under the 153 A and 295 A. He added that they harm the secular fabric of the country and are offensive.

Rahul fumes, "I am taking the initiative of filing the FIR because if a Muslim does it then they will say it is communal. Prime Minister Narendra Modi was just honoured with the highest civilian honour by Saudi Arabia and wished people on Ramadan just a day or so back. And here she is making such offensive statements."
