New Delhi, Mar 26: ‘The Kashmir Files’ filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri has been granted land by Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan for a ‘genocide museum.’
However, Congress MP Digvijaya Singh said on Saturday that the communal tranquilly of Bhopal cannot be disrupted.
On Friday, Chouhan told Agnihotri that the video depicts the sorrow and suffering of the uprooted Kashmiri Pandit population, and he promised a government plot of land in MP for the establishment of a ‘genocide museum.’
“I am totally against setting up a genocide museum in Bhopal. Will not let the communal harmony of Bhopal gets disturbed. I oppose it,” he tweeted on Saturday morning.
मैं पूरी तरह से भोपाल में नरसंहार संग्रहालय (Genocide Museum) बनने के खिलाफ हूँ। भोपाल के सांप्रदायिक सद्भाव को नहीं बिगड़ने देंगे। मैं इसका विरोध करता हूँ। @vivekagnihotri @ChouhanShivraj @INCIndia https://t.co/sEJIuexZG3

Chouhan, Agnihotri, and a few members of the Kashmiri Pandit community who had settled in Bhopal planted seedlings on Friday.
The grief and suffering of Pandit families displaced from Kashmir became known to the rest of the globe (through the film). Vivek Agnihotri has proposed that Madhya Pradesh establish a ‘genocide museum.’
