Pawan Kalyan, Andhra Pradesh`s deputy chief minister and Jana Sena chief, has publicly declared himself an "unapologetic Sanatani Hindu" during an event in Tirupati. He introduced the `Varahi Declaration,` which calls for a Sanatan Dharma Parirakshana law and the establishment of a dedicated board at both national and state levels to protect Sanatana Dharma. Kalyan criticized the judiciary, alleging that it offers protection to those who insult Hinduism while remaining unresponsive to similar offenses against Islam. He referenced Tamil Nadu`s deputy chief minister Udhayanidhi Stalin, who had previously likened Sanatan Dharma to a virus, emphasizing the need for stronger legal measures to safeguard Hindu beliefs. Kalyan`s statements reflect a growing concern among some political leaders regarding the perceived injustices faced by Hinduism in the current socio-political landscape
