Appeasing a particular community amounts to playing vote bank politics: Veerraju
The State government should desist from spending people’s money for the construction of churches, which, in fact, has to be done with the funds mobilised from within the community like it happens in the case of Hindu temples, BJP State president Somu Veerraju has said. “But the YSRCP government is funding the construction of churches. The BJP is opposed to it, not because of the religion in question but as a matter of principle,” Mr. Veerraju said while welcoming several pastors into the party here on Saturday. “If the government appeases a particular religion, it amounts to playing vote bank politics,” Mr. Veerraju said.
