On Sunday (August 29), The Commune published an article about a video in which a pastor can be seen demanding to break India and create a separate country for Christians.
The person in the video was identified in the article as one K. Upendra of Bible Open University International (BOUI) based on the tweet of SC/ST Rights Forum.
However, it has been clarified that the said pastor’s name is not Upendra but E. Santosh Kumar from the same organization.
E. Santosh Kumar is the Deputy Director of BOUI.
In the video pastor Santosh Kumar says “Under the leadership of our beloved leader Mr. P.D. Sundara Rao, we, on behalf of All India True Christian Council demand that India should be split into two and one half should be given to Christians as a separate country. We will not bother you then.”
Name of person in this video was erroneously mentioned as K.Upendra.
Please be noted that he's E. Santosh Kumar, DyDirector, BOUI.
Confusion arose as both are from BOUI, AITCC & video was smudgy. We stand corrected & regret for error@TheCommuneMag @OpIndia_com @AsianetNewsEN https://t.co/YnOXNWqNkg pic.twitter.com/XCDIND6v03
