After row, BJP's Tejasvi Surya 'unconditionally' withdraws 'Hindu revival' remark

IBNS | @indiablooms | 27 Dec 2021, 12:05 pm

New Delhi/IBNS: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Tejasvi Surya has withdrawn his call to "revive" Hindus, who were converted "over the course in India's history", after his statement triggered a massive row.

In a tweet, Surya has withdrawn the remark "unconditionally".

He tweeted, "At a program held in Udupi Sri Krishna Mutt two days ago, I spoke on the subject of ‘Hindu Revival in Bharat’.

"Certain statements from my speech has (have) regrettably created an avoidable controversy. I therefore unconditionally withdraw the statements."

Two days after the anti-conversion bill was passed in BJP-ruled Karnataka, Surya gave a call to bring back all people, who left their "mother religion", on priority.

"The Hindu has been taken out from his mother religion. There is only one possible solution...there is only one solution to address this anomaly," the South Bangalore MP had said at Sri Krishna Mutt.

"Those people who have left their mother religion and have for various socio-political, economic reasons over the course of India's history, those who have gone out of the Hindu fold, must be brought back in whole, brought back into the Hindu faith, brought back to the mother faith," the BJP youth wing national president had added.
