Ballari, Jan 25: Progressive thinker and religious guru, Veerabhadra Channamalla Swami, who is also the chief of the Nidumamidi Mutt has openly stated that Lord Rama and Seetha used to consume beef.
Cow meat was consumed at the time of yagnas too, the pontiff said, adding that there was reference to it in the Valmiki Ramayana also.
The RSS and BJP have forgotten this and are trying to impose a cultural imperialism on the country, which is a democracy, he said.
“The Sangh Parivar says all Hindus are one. But it is the Hindus who discriminate against the 'untouchable' communities,” lamented the seer.

Karnataka launches ‘namaste’ campaign to discourage handshake amid corona scare
News Network
March 11,2020
Mar 11: The Karnataka government on Wednesday started a campaign called 'Namaste over Handshake' that encourages people to greet in the traditional Indian style, to tackle the spread of coronavirus.
The campaign also includes health advice on how people can protect themselves from the infection by adopting hygiene practices such as regularly washing hands to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
As part of the campaign, the state health and family welfare department has uploaded a poster on the social media, featuring a 'Bharatnatyam' dancer draped in a red saree saying 'Namaste'.
"Use Namasthe to greet others, fight against corona" read a message on the poster online.
The poster has health helpline numbers (104 and 011- 23978046) for public queries on the viral disease, which has claimed 4,251 lives worldwide.
A health department official told PTI that as part of the campaign, posters have been uploaded on social media and it would be printed and despatched to different districts to be put up at important junctions.
"We had been working on this idea. Kerala has already done it. They are using Kathakali dancers whereas we are using a Bharatanatyam dancer as our model," the official said.
Medical Education Minister K Sudhakar too had insisted that people should adopt 'Namasthe' or 'Namaskara' to greet people instead of handshakes or hugs.

EVEN BJP AND RSS PEOPLE EAT BEEF SECRETLY. I can name them
BJP and sangh parivar will not digest this truth and will protest. Hegde/Yoodiyoorappa may call for karnataka bandh.
Dear Swamiji, Thank you for your statement. But we knew it while going through Hindu scriptures. And as Abu Muhammad said, you are talking about the good person RAAM. But BJP is talking about vote bank RAM or could be about Computer RAM (Random Access Memory)

I know one thing. Seer told one fact that is RSS and BJP trying to impose cultural imperialismin India
