Patna, March 6 Dhirendra Krishna Shastri, popularly known as Baba Bageshwar, has arrived in Ramgarh village (Bhore block, Gopalganj) for a five-day religious event, stirring a heated political debate in Bihar.
He said he had come here to promote Hindu unity and not any political party. Addressing a massive crowd, Shastri clarified that his presence was not for any political reason but to promote Hindu unity.
“We have not come to promote any party but to promote Hindu unity. We have come to tell the story of Ram in Ram's country. This country belongs to Lord Ram and Lord Krishna. As long as there is life in our body, we will live and die for Hindus,” Shastri said.
Responding to opposition and criticism over his visit to Bihar, Shastri launched an aggressive counterattack: “This country is not of Babar, but of Raghuvar (Lord Ram). It belongs to Ram, Krishna, Subhash Chandra Bose, and the saints. Bihar is ours, and we will keep coming here as long as we live.”
Shastri highlighted religious demography and suggested that Hindus lack a dedicated country for themselves.
“There are 65 Islamic countries, more than 95 Christian countries, one country for Jews, and one for Buddhists. If Muslims are expelled from any country, 65 countries will welcome them. If Christians are expelled, 95 countries will take them in. But if 150 crore Hindus are expelled, where will they go?” he asked.
Shastri dismissed criticism from Bihar’s political opponents, saying no force could prevent him from delivering religious discourses.
“Those who oppose me should first focus on filling their stomachs. We do not ask for votes, nor are we against anyone. But if someone tries to stop us, we will keep coming back. We will build a monastery here. We will build houses. And if necessary, we will be born in Bihar again after death,” he said.
During his stay, he will deliver sermons (Pravachan) on Hanumat Katha and conduct a Divya Darbar.
