One user came forward and wrote that these are the things that hurt the real sentiments.

Another user came forward and remarked on the sympathy of the followers who support and follow these godmen, implying how godmen such as these are promoting orthodox beliefs with the trope of being gurus of Dharma.
Another incident of a similar nature came to light when Hindu Priest Yati Narsinghanand, who is notoriously known for his inflammatory comments against Muslims and women, stated that the women in politics are mistresses of a politician.
