Voicing concern over the war-like situation between India and Pakistan, he said the terror attack on CRPF troopers led to this situation.
Pawan said war was not a solution to any problem and could cause huge damage to both the countries.
The actor slammed the BJP for behaving as if they were the only patriots. “Patriotism is not the BJP’s right alone. We are 10 times more patriotic than them,” he said.
Pawan, younger brother of superstar Chiranjeevi, also said Muslims do not need to prove their patriotism and asked Jana Sena cadres to foil any attempts to create communal disharmony in the society.
“Muslims have equal rights in India. I don’t know what is the status of Hindus in Pakistan but India keeps Muslims in its heart. It made Azharuddin captain of its cricket team and Abdul Kalam President of the country,” he said.
