'Bring back everyone who converted': BJP MP Tejasvi Surya's solution to save Hinduism

BJP MP Tejasvi Surya has sparked another controversy after he said that the only way to save Hinduism is to bring back everyone who has converted to other faiths.

He further said that all temples and Hindu religious places should set themselves yearly targets of bringing people back to what he called their 'mother religion'.

'Either by force or fraud, the Hindu has been taken away from his mother religion. There is only one solution to address this anomaly, those people who have left their mother religion and have, for various socio-political, economic reasons over the course of India's history, gone out of the Hindu fold must be brought back. They must have brought back to the mother faith,' the BJP Yuva Morcha chief said.
