How is it a crime to tell the root cause of atrocities against Hindus ? : Sadguru Bal Maharaj

In this regard, Yogi Santosh alias Sadguru Bal Maharaj said, “Today, we are witnessing the condition of several countries in the world where Jihadi terrorism exists. In Bangladesh, 8-year-old Hindu girls was raped and murdered, thousands of Hindus were murdered, temples were demolished, and unceasing atrocities continue to happen against the Hindus. Then how is it a crime to tell the people about the root cause of all this ? Today, we have to take out marches to get justice for the Hindus in Bangladesh. Today’s India is a new India. Therefore, the truth about what is happening in the world must come before the people and someone must bring it forward.”

Editorial Perspective

Tamil Nadu Dy CM Udhayanidhi Stalin, Congress’s Priyank Kharge compared Sanatan Dharma to dengue, malaria, HIV and spoke of eradicating Sanatan Dharma. People from Maharashtra such as Nikhil Wagle, NCP Chief Sharad Pawar, NCP MLA Jitendra Awhad have also spewed venom against Sanatan Dharma and said that ‘Sanatan Dharma is a pest destroying the country’. Only nominal cases are registered against them and no further action is taken. Therefore, Hindus feel that religious sentiments are only for the people of other religions and not for Hindus.
