Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan has demanded the immediate release of Hindu saint Chinmoy Krishna Das detained in Bangladesh. Pawan Kalyan has expressed his concern and displeasure regarding this issue by taking the help of social media platform ‘X’ (formerly Twitter).
Saint in custody for more than 500 days
Pawan Kalyan said in his statement that Saint Chinmoy Krishna Das has been kept in custody for the last 500 days, which is a matter of serious human rights concern. He claimed that it is not fair to keep a religious saint in jail for so long without a clear solution and the matter requires immediate judicial intervention.
According to him, this issue is not only about an individual’s freedom but also about religious freedom and human rights.
Raised voice on social media
The Deputy Chief Minister used the social media platform ‘X’ to raise the issue publicly. In his post, he tried to draw the attention of the international community to the matter by appealing for the release of the saint.
Pawan Kalyan said that keeping any person in custody for a long time without a fair and transparent process is against democratic values. He demanded prompt and fair action in this matter.
political and social reaction
After this statement of Pawan Kalyan, the discussion has intensified in political and social circles. His supporters welcomed the move, saying it was a strong message in favor of human rights.
At the same time, some experts believe that raising such sensitive issues at the international level can increase discussion at the diplomatic level also. However, till now there has been no detailed official response from the Bangladesh government or the concerned administration on this matter.
issue of religious freedom
This incident has once again given rise to a debate on religious freedom and freedom of expression. Human rights activists say that prolonged detention of any person on the basis of his religion or views is a matter of grave concern.
Pawan Kalyan also indicated in his statement that this issue is not limited to just one country, but it is a matter related to global human rights values.
