BJP MLA Balmukund Acharya, speaking at a Bhagawat Katha event, fearmongered about non-Hindu population, claiming that Hindu homes and properties would soon be taken over by “Turks.” He added that while those demanding the Ram Mandir were once attacked, people now speak of Kashi Vishwanath, bringing out deities at Qutub Minar and making Krishna Janambhoomi at Mathura.
