THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Rahul Easwar, right-wing activist and leader of Ayyappan Dharma Sena, has come up with a response in regarding the murder of a priest in Karauli in Rajasthan. In a video on Twitter, he said that if an upper-caste Hindu or a Brahmin is assaulted, political parties or community organizations do not respond. Easwar opined that the incident in Karauli is cruel and agonizing.

"Like I believe that Dalits and Muslim lives are valuable, Brahmin lives are valuable as well. It is high time that the Rajasthan government condemns the murder in Karauli. Culprits behind this should be brought to justice", Rahul Easwar said.

A priest died after being set on fire allegedly by five people who wanted to encroach on temple land in Rajasthan's Karauli district on Thursday.
