In yet another instances of Congress leaders making objectionable remarks against Hinduism, Telangana Revanth Reddy went on to publicly ridicule the Hindu pantheon by mocking the multiplicity of Gods and their attributes.
“How many gods do Hindus believe in? Are there three crore? Why do so many exist? There is one god for those who are unmarried — Hanuman. There is another god for those who marry twice. And there is yet another god for those who drink alcohol. For hen sacrifice, there is one; for dal and rice, there is one. Each group has its own god,” Reddy said as reported in India Today.
🔹హిందూ దేవుళ్ళను అపహాస్యం చేయడం ప్రతి ఒక్కడికి ఒక ఫ్యాషన్ అయిపోయింది.
🔹ఒక ముఖ్యమంత్రి స్థాయిలో ఉండి కోట్ల మంది హిందువుల మనోభావాలు దెబ్బతినే విధంగా @revanth_anumula రేవంత్ రెడ్డి గారు దేవుళ్ళ పైన కారెడ్డాలాడుతూ మాట్లాడడం దురదృష్టకరం.

These statements quickly provoked backlash from opposition parties. Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) accused him of insulting Hindu beliefs and demanded an immediate apology. The BJP state leadership described the remarks as shameful for millions of Hindus, while BRS leaders called the comments a crude attempt to mock faith — suggesting the remarks might be more than a slip of tongue.
Revanth Reddy had earlier courted controversy saying “Congress means Muslims and Muslim means Congress”. He also sparked controversy by questioning how many Rafale jets were shot down by Pakistan.
