Popular Villain Prakash Raj has slammed Union minister Ananthkumar Hegde for equating nationalism with Hindutva.
In a Twitter post, Raj asked the Karnataka BJP leader to clarify what he meant when he said “nationalism and Hindutva” are one and mean the same.
“You said ‘nationalism and Hindutva are not two different things but are one and mean the same. Why do you bring in a religion into nationalism?
Then what about those who are not Hindus, people, who are our country’s pride like Ambedkar, Adbul Kalam, A Rahman, Khuswant Singh, Amrita Pritam, Dr Verghese Kurien… the list goes on.
“And what about many like me who do not have a religion, but believe in humanity? Aren’t we all the national of our country? Who are you guys…
What’s your agenda… Since you believe in ‘janmas’… Are you guys reincarnation of Germans HITLER (sic),” Prakash Raj tweeted.
