Prakash Raj is in no mood to tolerate any kind of nonsense. The National Award winning actor, who has been vocal against the BJP and the Hindutva politics ever since the death of Kannada journalist Gauri Lankesh, once again took to Twitter to call out junior HRD minister Satyapal Singh.
The junior minister, during an event in Aurangabad, reportedly said, “Since the man is seen on Earth he has always been a man. Nobody, including our ancestors, in written or oral, have said they saw an ape turning into a man.”
Now the natural reaction would be like Ross.
The actor responded with a tweet saying, “But dear sir,..can you deny that we are witnessing..the reverse….man evolving into ape.”
“ our ancestors have not seen ape evolving in to man” says minister. But dear sir,..can you deny that we are witnessing..the reverse….man evolving into ape by digging the past and trying to take us back into STONE AGE……#justasking

Talking about his political stand, the actor at the India Today Conclave in Hyderabad had said, “They say I am anti-Hindu. No. I am anti-(Narendra) Modi, I am anti-Hegde, I am anti-Amit Shah. According to me, they are not Hindus. Mr Anant Kumar Hegde, who says he wants to wipe out an ‘ism’, a religion from the face of this Earth, cannot be a Hindu. The person who supports killing, cannot be a Hindu,” he said.
