Yogi is like Aurangzeb, not worthy of being called Hindu : Shankaracharya
Shankaracharya Swami Avimukteshwaranand said Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath is not worthy of being called Hindu, adding, "We call him Akbar and Aurangzeb."
"This is a man who supports demolishing temples," he stated. This comes amid a row over his allegation that police stopped him and his followers from taking a holy dip in the Ganga.
