Editorial Perspectives

  • This shows that those with a Jihadi mindset have no fear of the Government, the Police and the law. This is shameful for the Telangana Government.
  • What do the Islamic countries, and the USA, who cry saying ‘Minorities are unsafe in India’ have to say about this incident ?
  • It is the religious duty of Hindus to stand in support of all the Hindu leaders fighting for Hindutva. Hindus should now create such a position, that no one will dare to think of harming Hindus.
