Pawan Kalyan condemns attack on Chilkur head priest, calls it attack on Dharma
Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan condemned the attack on Chilkur Balaji temple chief priest CS Rangarajan, calling it an attack on Dharma. The attack was carried out by a fringe group called 'Rama Rajya' who demanded Rangarajan spread their message of 'dharma rakshana'. The police have arrested Veera Raghava Reddy, leader of the group, after he assaulted Rangarajan. The group claims to be descendants of the Ikshwaku clan and wants to establish their own 'Rama Rajya' by forming private armies. Both Pawan Kalyan and BRS Working President KT Rama Rao condemned the attack and demanded stringent action against the perpetrators. They emphasized the importance of peace and security in Telangana and urged the state government to take the incident seriously.04:46 PM Feb 10, 2025 IST
