Reddy condemns attack on Chilkur temple chief priest

Hyderabad, Feb 10 (UNI) Union Minister and Telangana BJP President G Kishan Reddy has strongly condemned the attack on Chilkur Balaji Temple’s chief priest, C S Rangarajan.
In a statement issued on Monday, Kishan Reddy said, "I strongly condemn the attack on the Chief Priest of Chilkur Balaji Temple, Rangarajan. He has renounced high positions to serve with dedication in the protection of Sanatana Dharma and has upheld high religious values by providing spiritual guidance to devotees. This inhuman attack on such a respected religious figure is condemnable, painful, and unfortunate."
He further stated that acts of violence, threats, and physical attacks have no place in a democracy. "This should not be viewed merely as an attack on an individual but as an attack on Sanatana Dharma itself," he asserted.
