'Secularists' criticise Hindu gods but don't question other religions, says Andhra Deputy CM
ANDHRA Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan on Sunday slammed "fake secularists" for targeting the Hindu faith in the name of freedom of expression and called for respecting all religions.
He said the 'secularists' often criticise Hindu practices, but they don't question other religions in India.
"A Christian can be a Christian, a Muslim can be a Muslim but they have a problem if a Hindu is Hindu. If one is Hindu, they call him communal. This is their fake secularism. Who are you to question my belief. We don't question your belief, you should follow that decency," he said.
