“The DMK government has schemed to plunder temples and have started working towards the same,” said BJP Member of National Executive Committee, H Raja.
Speaking to reporters in Coimbatore, Raja said, “Those who had cast their votes for DMK have started regretting their decision. The DMK government that was unable to give a solution to areas affected by the recent floods, have started arresting those who are speaking against them, in an attempt to divert the focus of the public. Maridhas has also been arrested for this reason.
More than 150 temples have been desecrated even since the DMK formed the government. All those temples were built upon Patta lands. People are not able to visit temples because of DMK’s governance. They even prohibited devotees from taking part in the Tiruchendur Sura Samharam festival by ordering a Lathi charge.
The DMK government has schemed to plunder temples and have started working towards the same. Melting temple jewellery and making them into ‘Gold Biscuits’ is one of those schemes. I have issued a complaint to the HR&CE Commissioner about this issue. Those who share messages speaking ill of PM Modi, CDS Bipin Rawat and RSS workers on social media have to be arrested.”
