“Why is there silence over the desecration of the temple? Why are even the ordinary Hindus not speaking up? Not even a single Hindu has the courage to attack the place of worship of other religions.”he said.

Coming down heavily on Congress government, the BJP MLA alleged that the way temples were being targeted looked like Congress government was behind it.

“Whenever attacks take place on temples, the government takes some measures and then again the issue is left. On the other hand, whenever attacks takes place at the place of worship of other religions, the government acts swiftly,” he alleged.
