BJP submits memorandum to Governor on law and order in Andhra Pradesh

A delegation of the BJP, led by its national executive member Kanna Lakshminarayana and Mahila Morcha State president B. Nirmala Kishore, submitted a memorandum to Governor Biswa Bhusan Harichandan on the alleged desecration of Hindu temples, increasing attacks on women and girls, and the prevailing law and order situation, here on Wednesday.

Addressing the media later, Mr. Lakshminarayana alleged that though several temples had been destroyed and idols vandalised after the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) came to power, no action was taken against the culprits.

“Besides, religious conversions are taking place. Members of the Hindu community are being either beaten up or killed as the government has turned a blind eye to the atrocities,” the BJP leader alleged.
