They demanded Mr. Bapu Rao’s dismissal from Lok Sabha, and legal action against him. They demanded an apology by Mr. Bapu Rao to the Christian community.
Several media channels reported Mr. Bapu Rao’s speech at an event in Adilabad, where he allegedly threatened pastors with bullets over attempts to convert Aadivasi population to Christianity.
