These kids are like clan flowers not seen the world. Very innocent.
How a person can have hatred OR enmity with such innocent kids.

This guy does not represent all Hindus, this is his own corrupt ideology. However his fellow Hindus have responsibility to correct him, to change him by hook OR Crook. One guy spoils the name of entire community is not acceptable in the civil society.

We are with the saddened parents and friends of these kids.

RSS and Bajrangi has become more dangerous for human. They started to think like animals.
After worshiping stone for many years their heart has became stones permanently.

Bengaluru, Apr 17: The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting on Thursday served a show cause notice to a Kannada news channel for broadcasting a programme in which it purportedly said that the Centre would 'air drop money' to the poor, owing to the COVID-19 lockdown.

The notice said that the channel was "spreading false information, creating panic and social unrest.

" The channel had allegedly aired a show titled, "Helicopter Money" on Wednesday which claimed that the Centre would drop money from helicopters during the lockdown period.

A Twitter user took a serious note of it and complained to the Union Minister for Information and Broadcasting Prakash Javadekar.

The fact check team of the Press Information Bureau, under the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, refuted the claim.

In its notice to the channel, PIB said, "You are hereby directed to show cause why your channel should not be taken out of air immediately. You are instructed to send your reply in this regard within 10 days of receipt of this notice."

Reacting to the notice, the management of the news channels said, "A programme which has been seen in bits and pieces and those who have not even seen the programme appears to have complained. Notice will be replied accordingly."
