Expressing shock over the attempts to polarise the public on religious lines, the Christian community of Tirupati called for restoration of peace in the temple city.
Members of the Tirupati United Christian Churches gathered for an emergency meeting at the Shekina Church in Kanaka Bhushanam layout here on Friday and discussed the series of events happening in the state and its impact on the community based at Tirupati. The community members dubbed the desecration of Hindu idols and demolition of religious structures as ‘unfortunate’ and requested the state government to arrest the culprits immediately. Expressing pain at such acts being attributed to the ‘peace-loving’ community, its honorary President Pastor Arul Arasu said certain political parties were making unconstitutional remarks against the entire community for their political gains.
