Multilingual actor Prakash Raj on Thursday attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi, BJP chief Amit Shah and Union Minister Anant Kumar Hegde saying they were not Hindus.

“They say that I am anti-Modi, anti-Amit Shah, anti-Hegde. According to me, they’re not Hindus,'' Raj said at the India Today Conclave South in Hyderabad.

“When Gauri Lankesh was killed, some people celebrated her murder. These were people who were being followed by PM Modi. A person who supports killing cannot be a Hindu,” he added

Taking on Anantkumar Hegde, Raj said anyone who wants to wipe out a religion from the face of this earth, cannot be a Hindu.

Raj also hit out at the BJP on the Padmaavat row, “They talk about Rajput pride. I understand if Rajputs of Rajasthan are saying so. But, what it has to do with those in Gujarat and Haryana?”

Actor Vishal, filmmaker SK Sasidharan, and Dalit activist Kancha Ilaiah were also part of the panel discussion.

 You are doing daring work by telling truth. But They may target you soon. As they are sitting in Central Govt., Seat. Truth in India Does not have any value. best Example see what happened with Dr. Zakir Naik. NIA frames so many people with no reason. They release them who are arrested with nonsense allegations. Why NIA did not know when Terrorist Entered in Gujarath for 26/11 ? Was Gujrath Govt Sleeping ?

Bengaluru, May 30: Health Minister B Sriramulu banned the consumption of chewing tobacco in public places on Saturday, which is marked as World Tobacco Day. The ban would include chewing paan masala and spitting in public places.

In June 2013, the state banned the manufacture, storage, sale, or distribution of gutka and paan masala containing tobacco or nicotine as ingredients to reduce the prevalence of tobacco use. On October 26, 2016, the state proscribed all kinds of chewing tobacco, containing tobacco or nicotine or both in accordance with the Supreme Court order.

Karnataka is the second state in India to ban e-cigarettes. The state also prohibited single cigarettes. Until September 2019, the state counselled 15,698 patients in tobacco cessation centres set up in private dental colleges.
