P.P. Kadsiddheshwar Swamiji

Belagavi – A case has been registered against Param Pujya Kadsiddheshwar Swamiji of Kolhapur district at Bilur in Gadchiroli (Karnataka) on the allegation that his remarks during a discourse had hurt the sentiments of the Lingayat community. The complaint states that the discourse delivered at Bilur Math on 9 October was disruptive to social harmony. Speaking to the media, Param Pujya Kadsiddheshwar Swamiji said, “This case has been filed under political pressure. I did not say anything of that sort in my discourse. I have spoken only the truth.”

Param Pujya Kadsiddheshwar Swamiji further said, “Ministers in the Karnataka Government were themselves responsible for creating divisions within the Lingayat community. Therefore, in my discourse I had strongly criticised those who were breaking the Lingayat community. One of the ministers there, along with the Karnataka Government, has lodged a complaint against me out of spite. It takes immense effort to unite society and protect Dharma. The Karnataka Government is deliberately acting in this manner.”

Editorial Perspectives

  • The Congress Government in Karnataka, which has distorted the statement of Param Pujya Kadsiddheshwar Swamiji to register a case against him, is clearly anti-Hindu !
  • Hindus must question the Karnataka Government, which refrains from taking action even when religious leaders of other faiths commit wrongdoings !
