The Islamists want CAA protests to be ‘inclusive’ only till the time you, the non Muslims, start accepting their religious identity, beliefs and supremacist slogans as gospel… Long live the dream of ‘Ghazwae-Hind’! pic.twitter.com/va564eghL8 — Amit Malviya (@amitmalviya) January 26, 2020 In the 42 second clip, Khanum can be heard saying,  “A common opinion should be developed at least among the people here that until we become an ideal society where our religious identity, our religious beliefs and our slogans are accepted, we should carry out an inclusive protest. This protest is also taking us to a society where everybody will be included. So we aren’t compromising our ideology, I want to reiterate this. We are not compromising out ideology but changing our strategy.” [Translated from: यहाँ पर एक आम राय कम से कम जितने लोग बैठे हुए है की एक आम राय इसको लेके बने कि जब तक हम वो आइडियल सोसाइटी बन पाए जहा हमारी मज़बी पहचानो, हमारी मज़बी जो बिलीफ है, जो हमारे नारे है, उनको लेकर एक तरह का एक्सेप्टेन्स पैदा हो तब तक हम एक इंक्लूसिव प्रोटेस्ट करे. और ये प्रोटेस्ट भी हमे उसी सोसाइटी की तरह ले जा रहे है जहा हम सबको शामिल करेंगे। तो हम हमारी जो आइडियोलॉजी है उससे कोम्प्रोमाईज़ नहीं कर रहे है, आयी वांट टू रीइटरेट यहाँ हम हमारी आइडियोलॉजी से कोम्प्रोमाईज़ नहीं कर रहे है, हम अपनी स्ट्रेटेजी बदल रहे है।] Sambit Patra The video was also tweeted by BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra who took it up a notch and claimed that Khanum disclosed the strategy to develop an ‘Islamic Caliphate’.  “Hindus will be required only till the time an Islamic society is not created. (हिंदुओं की आवश्यकता केवल “तब तक” ही है जब तक इस्लामिक Society का निर्माण न हो जाए),”  wrote Patra.
