The Aligarh Police on Sunday booked Hindutva supremacist seer Yati Narsinghanand for calling for the demolition of madrassas and the Aligarh Muslim University, India Today reported.

Narsinghanand made the remarks after attending an event organised by the Hindu Mahasabha in Aligarh on Sunday. He was responding to a question on the Uttar Pradesh government’s decision to conduct a survey of unrecognised madrassas in the state.

“Madrassas should not exist in the first place,” he said. “They should be blown to bits with gunpowder or we should practice the policy of China and send the residents of the madrassas to detention camps.”
