CM condemns attack on priests and nuns in Odisha

Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has condemned the reported attacks on Keralite priests and nuns in Odisha on Wednesday.

In a tweet on X, the Chief Minister posted, “Reports of an assault on Keralite Catholic priests and nuns by Sangh Parivar goons in Jaleswar, Odisha, on false charges of religious conversion, reflect the ongoing communal witch-hunt against Christians in the country, exemplified by the arrest of nuns in Chhattisgarh weeks ago. Such Hindutva vigilantism, enabled by the regime’s impunity, must be unitedly resisted by secular & democratic forces.”
