Chandrababu Naidu slams idol desecration
In a stinging attack on Andhra Pradesh CM Jagan Mohan Reddy in the context of the temple and Idol desecration, TDP president and former CM N Chandrababu Naidu on 2nd January said that Reddy is a “betrayer of Hindus.” Naidu said, “Jagan Reddy may be a Christian. But thinking that, he can use this power to converts Hindus is wrong. If people in power resort to religious conversions, it amounts to betrayal. One should not show such religious intolerance”.
