Firebrand VHP leader Praveen Togadia who has been booked for making an alleged hate speech today said that he is a victim of political conspiracy by state authorities of Maharashtra. Justifying his stand in Allahabad on February 08, Togadia had said that his speech if provocative would have triggered protests, which it hasn't. He maintained that he didn't target any particular community or group during his speech and just spoke of working for the benefit of Hindus residing in India. Togadia gave the inflammatory speech on February 01 near Adilabad district of Uttar Pradesh, the same district where Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM) legislator, Akbaruddin Owaisi had delivered his hate speech.
