Kalaburagi, February 6: Senior Congress leader and former Karnataka chief minister Siddaramaiah on Monday alleged that ‘Manuvada’ and ‘Hindutva’ encourage murder, violence and discrimination.
The former CM said he is also a Hindu who follows Hindu Dharma but stands against Hindutva. “Hindutva and Hindu Dharma are different. I’m always projected as anti-Hindu and anti-Hindu Dharma. I’m not anti-Hindu Dharma. I’m also a Hindu, but I’m anti-Manuvada and Hindutva,” Siddaramaiah said.┬аVideo: Congress Leader Siddaramaiah Calls Karnataka CM Basavaraj Bommai Puppy Before PM Narendra Modi.
