Telangana Bharatiya Janata Party president Bandi Sanjay Kumar, on Thursday, accused Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao of discriminating against majority community by not paying any kind of honorarium to priests and not giving permissions for construction of temples.
“The BJP is committed to safeguarding the Sanathana Dharma and the Hindu traditions. It is unfortunate that KCR, who often claims that TS is rich, doesn’t bother about paying salaries to poor priests of temples who will starve but will not stop offering ‘prasad’ to the presiding deity,” he said.
Interacting with representatives of Brahmin community after they submitted a petition listing out their grievances at his ‘Praja Sangrama Yatra’ at Kundaram village of Nellutla mandal in Jangaon district as it entered the 16th day, the Karimnagar MP regretted the plight of the community “who were protecting the Hindu dharma”.
