Chitradurga, Aug. 17 -- Senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader and LoP R Ashoka today came down heavily on the Congress government, accusing it of deliberately targeting Hindu religious institutions while remaining silent in cases concerning mosques and minority organisations.
Ashoka, reacting to the ongoing Dharmasthala controversy, said that it shows the ruling party's mindset of belittling Hindu sentiments.
