All through his explanation, Chaudhary repeated several times that he was not targeting any particular religion but rather those who hold unholy ideas of dividing the country.<\/p>\n<p>Incidentally, Chaudhary, who blatantly plagiarized the jihad chart from a dubious Facebook page had once made a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/zee-news-falsely-claims-mahua-moitra-plagiarised-her-maiden-parliament-speech\/\">plagiarism charge against TMC MP<\/a> Mahua Moitra.
