The Telugu Desam Party (TDP) launched a scathing attack on the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) over the alleged manhandling of a priest at a temple in Kakinada town.
TDP national spokesperson Jyothsna Tirunagari, on Tuesday, slammed the YSRCP government for an “unprecedented wave of attacks on Hindu temples”.
“YSRCP leader Siriyala Chandra Rao attacked priests at a Siva temple in Kakinada. Under the leadership of Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, we have seen a disturbing escalation in acts of desecration and violence upon our temples and priests. The temples and priests have been subjected to despicable acts of vandalism, aggression, and violence,” she alleged.
