Hindu will give a befitting reply: Dr Raman Singh
Addressing the gathering on this occasion, Dr Raman Singh appreciated the meaningful efforts of the committee for the campaign of public awareness and encouraged everyone who participated in this campaign. He said that surely this campaign of public awareness will give a message of solidarity to the people against conversion not only in Bhilai-Durg and the state but also in the entire country. Hindu community will no longer tolerate the way a large number of conversions are being done in the state. The Kawardha incident is an example of appeasement, but these people should know that when attempts are made to crush the saffron, Hindus will unite and give a befitting reply.
