Patna (Bihar) – Fateh Bahadur Singh, a Rashtriya Janata Dal MLA from Dehri in the Rohtas District of Bihar, made an anti-Hindu statement in which he said that there is no such thing as Goddess Durga, she is a fiction. He was speaking at an event in Patna. He called himself a ‘descendant of Mahishasur’, saying that Durga Saptashati is a fake and useless story.

Fateh Bahadur further said,
1. Mahishasur was a brilliant king and represented 90% of the majority of the people. (Fateh Bahadur has exhibited his ignorance by calling Mahishasur a bright and popular ruler while it is well known that Mahishasurmardani Goddess Durga was incarnated to save the common people from the clutches of an evil and arrogant demon like Mahishasur ! – Editor)
2. It is said in the scriptures that Goddess Durga was created by Deity Shiva invoking her along with other Deities. In this way, Goddess Durga became the daughter of Deity Shiva. On the other hand, this Goddess Durga is also called ‘Mahagauri’. Mahagauri was Deity Shiva’s wife, that is, did Deity Shiva marry his own daughter ? (No amount of pity is enough for Fateh Bahadur’s dumbness, who insults the religious beliefs of Hindus by interpreting the stories of the Puranas as per his will ! – Editor)
3. Followers of Manu have written that ‘Goddess Durga fought against the crores of Mahishasur’s army and killed him’. I want to ask those followers, what was Goddess Durga doing when India was colonised by a handful of Britishers ? (Only those who don’t even have the slightest knowledge of the high-level work of Deities, Incarnations, etc. can raise such an ignorant question ! – Editor)
Earlier, another RJD MLA and Education Minister from Bihar, Chandrashekhar Yadav, compared Ramcharitmanas to ‘Potassium Cyanide’ while making a controversial statement.
