The District administration should take action immediately. There are several pieces of evidence of Hindu deities, it is our responsibility to protect them. We won’t leave it even if we have sacrificed our lives. Our struggle will move on. We will fulfill our demands legally. We will follow the court’s orders,” he said and demanded the District Administration to inform what measures it has taken in this regard.
