On this edition of SoSouth, Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan speaks exclusively to India Today, calling for the formation of a Sanatana Rakshana Board to protect Hindu traditions. Kalyan stated, 'I think that's what every Hindu should learn from a Muslim, how to safeguard your religion when it is being attacked, when it is being desecrated.' He condemned what he termed 'pseudo-secularists' for targeting Hinduism, citing the Madurai Karthika Deepam incident and past court verdicts like Sabarimala.
