Mangalore: The members of Akhila bharath Hindu Yuvasabha condemned the recent statement of former union minister Veerappa Moily, who said Hindu is a word first used by Muslims on September 21 at Murugha math.
The members sought legal action against Veerappa Moily for deliberately hurting the sentiments of Hindu community.
The press release stated Veerappa Moily at a function in Murugha on Sunday said Hindu word is coined by Prophet Mohhamed. The release stated Hindu is a way of life. It does not belong to one religion. It is unfortunate that the union minister lacks knowledge on this issue.
