As the war of words between TDP leaders, ministers and Hindu saints, Peethadhipathis, activists intensify over demolishing of temples in the successor state of Andhra Pradesh without proper notice, one activist Siva Swamy breathed fire on Vijayawada MP Kesineni Nani. Following Nani’s alleged remarks on Siva Swamy that he has business interests in the construction of temples, Siva Swamy shot back at Nani and strongly retaliated his remarks. Siva Swamy alleged that Nani had sold tickets of bus passengers travelling from Vijayawada to Hyderabad in black and reached this stage.
Siva Swamy didn’t even spare cabinet ministers in Naidu government. Saying that few ministers finding fault with Hindu saints alleging business interests in the issue, Siva Swamy questioned the interests of politicians visiting temples before filing their nominations. “You visit temples before filing nominations and do pujas. Don’t you find that as business interest?”
“The issue should have been handled well. We weren’t against to the development. But the government hasn’t issued proper time. In Gujarat, all the stake holders were invited for talks, and after thorough discussion, government did it with care. The priests were asked to dismantle the idols and shift them to a sacred place as per rituals and then priests were asked to break down step by step, followed by government officials. None of this is followed in the new state of AP,” added Siva Swamy.
He said that the state government has retracted its decision and agreed for five demands of the Hindu activists as per which major temples would be rebuilt with the expenses of government in an ample space. Government would provide sufficient lands. Hindu activists further pointed out at the biased approach of government officials whereas a Dharga wasn’t even touched and given four months time, while temples were bulldozed overnight.The Hindu activists in unison have demanded CM Chandrababu Naidu an unconditional apology in the issue.
