Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee Vice President V.T. Balaram said that our post was for satire. No Congress worker could even think of insulting the Pope. Christians around the world consider the Pope to be God. Congress has no hesitation in making fun of Narendra Modi. Modi insults people of different religions by calling himself God. The Prime Minister is deliberately keeping silent on Manipur. People of Christian community have been oppressed in Manipur. Churches are destroyed. Minorities have faced oppression in the Northeast; (Not Christians and Muslims in North-East India, but Hindus are the minority; but note that the Congressmen are criticizing Hindus there as a majority too! – Editor) But the Prime Minister did not say a word. We condemn the negligence shown by the Prime Minister towards the minorities. The Prime Minister should apologize to the Christian community.

Editorial Perspective

Please note that the Congress, which apologized immediately after insulting the Christian priests, has been oppressing the Hindu saints !
