The group is now proceeding to DC office to submit a memorandum demanding release of religious leader Kalicharan. The group has declared a reward of Rs 22 lakh to any police officer who arrests MP Asaduddin Owaisi for his alleged speeches.
Kalicharan Maharaj’s remark at Raipur Dharam Sansad came just days after a religious assembly in Haridwar made headlines over provocative and communal speeches made by Hindu religious leaders against minority communities during the event.
This is not the first time that Kalicharan has made provocative speeches.
On December 19, he made derogatory comments about Christians and Muslims at an event in Pune, prompting the police to register a case against him and five others.
