Swami Govinddev Giri follows a toxic and fanatic ideology : YouTuber Ravindra Pokharkar

YouTuber Ravindra Pokharkar’s anti-Hindu remarks

Mumbai – Ravindra Pokharkar, who runs the YouTube channel ‘Abhivyakti,’ made an anti-Hindu statement through his video, alleging that H.H. Swami Govinddev Giri, the treasurer of the Shriram Janmabhoomi Trust in Ayodhya, follows a toxic and fanatic ideology. On 10thFebruary, he released a video titled “Suparibaz, Pakhandi Kirtankar Maharaj,” where he made these remarks. Following this, a case has been registered against him. Throughout the video, Swami Govinddev Giri was referred to in a disrespectful manner.

Ravindra Pokharkar stated, “During the Assembly elections, Kirtankars were used for campaigning. These Kirtankars gave up on the values propagated by our Saints. They openly sold themselves in the market. They turned the Assembly elections into a religious organisation’s election, claiming, ‘If you want to protect religion, there is no alternative to the BJP.” (Pokharkar’s choice of words for Kirtankars clearly reflects his anti-Hindu mentality – Editor)

A case will be registered against Pokharkar – Devendra Fadnavis, Chief Minister

A case will be registered against Ravindra Pokharkar. In a HindutvaGovernment, there will be no leniency for those who insult Saints and Sages.

Strict punishment for such acts in the future – Acharya Tushar Bhosale, State President, BJP Spiritual Coordination Committee

The primary duty of revered Saints, Sages, and Kirtankars is to protect Dharma. Their role is to awaken society for it. Dharmacharyas and Kirtankars in Maharashtra have upheld this tradition and spread awareness in society. They did not ask people to vote for any particular party; they only engaged in religious awakening. However, this individual was giving sermons through his video on what Dharmacharyas and Kirtankars should do instead. Strict punishment will be ensured for such acts in the future.

Such degenerates must be punished – Prakash Gade, BJP Social Media Convener

The Varkari community has guided society for centuries. This community, which holds a sacred place in people’s faith, deserves respect from all. If anyone insults or abuses them, such degenerates must be punished. Action will be taken against them through legal means. If they continue to create such videos in the future, further cases will be registered against them.

Editorial Perspectives

  • H.H. Swami Govinddev Giri is a knowledgeable, ascetic, and Karmayogi spiritual leader. He has dedicated his entire life to the service of God, the nation, and Dharma. Swamiji has tirelessly followed the eightfold path prescribed by our culture. Making such statements about such a great personality only exposes one’s own ignorance. Ravindra Pokharkar, who disrespects Hindu Dharma, should be imprisoned.
  • It is well known how clerics in mosques and priests in churches go to extreme lengths to spew venom against society, especially Hindus. Why doesn’t Pokharkar speak about this ?
